Length of Load Arm given Load and Effort Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length of Load Arm = Effort on Lever*Length of Effort Arm/Load on lever
l₂ = P*l₁/W
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Length of Load Arm - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Load Arm is the distance from the pivot point to the point where the load is applied on a lever, influencing its mechanical advantage.
Effort on Lever - (Measured in Newton) - The Effort on Lever is the force applied to a lever to lift or move a load, demonstrating the principles of mechanical advantage in lever systems.
Length of Effort Arm - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Effort Arm is the distance from the fulcrum to the point where effort is applied on a lever, influencing the lever's mechanical advantage.
Load on lever - (Measured in Newton) - The Load on lever is the force applied to a lever, affecting its balance and mechanical advantage in various machine design applications.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Effort on Lever: 310 Newton --> 310 Newton No Conversion Required
Length of Effort Arm: 900 Millimeter --> 0.9 Meter (Check conversion here)
Load on lever: 2945 Newton --> 2945 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

l₂ = P*l₁/W --> 310*0.9/2945

Evaluating ... ...

l₂ = 0.0947368421052632

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0947368421052632 Meter -->94.7368421052632 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

94.7368421052632 ≈ 94.73684 Millimeter <-- Length of Load Arm

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
