Lap of Flange given Diameter of Wheel Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Lap of Flange = 2*((Diameter of Wheel*Depth of Wheel Flange)+Depth of Wheel Flange^2)^0.5
L = 2*((D*H)+H^2)^0.5
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Lap of Flange - (Measured in Millimeter) - Lap of flange refers to the projecting edge or rim on the circumference of a steel wheel that is designed to keep the wheel on a rail.
Diameter of Wheel - (Measured in Millimeter) - Diameter of wheel is the length of the wheel (diameter) of the train.
Depth of Wheel Flange - (Measured in Millimeter) - Depth of wheel flange is the vertical distance of wheel flange .

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Diameter of Wheel: 11.25 Millimeter --> 11.25 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Depth of Wheel Flange: 20 Millimeter --> 20 Millimeter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L = 2*((D*H)+H^2)^0.5 --> 2*((11.25*20)+20^2)^0.5

Evaluating ... ...

L = 50

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.05 Meter -->50 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

50 Millimeter <-- Lap of Flange

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
