Load using Lengths and Effort Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Variables Used

Load on lever - (Measured in Newton) - Load on lever is the instantaneous load that is resisted by the lever.
Length of Effort Arm - (Measured in Meter) - Length of effort arm is defined as the length of the arm of the lever onto which the effort force is applied.
Effort on Lever - (Measured in Newton) - Effort on Lever is the force applied on the input of the lever to overcome the resistance to get the work done by the machine.
Length of Load Arm - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Load Arm is the length of the arm of a lever on the end on which the load is exerted.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of Effort Arm: 900 Millimeter --> 0.9 Meter (Check conversion here)
Effort on Lever: 294 Newton --> 294 Newton No Conversion Required
Length of Load Arm: 95 Millimeter --> 0.095 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W = l₁*P/l₂ --> 0.9*294/0.095

Evaluating ... ...

W = 2785.26315789474

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2785.26315789474 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2785.26315789474 ≈ 2785.263 Newton <-- Load on lever

Bending stress in lever of rectangular cross section

LaTeX Go Bending Stress in Lever Arm = (32*(Effort on Lever*((Length of Effort Arm)-(Diameter of Lever Fulcrum Pin))))/(pi*Width of Lever Arm*(Depth of Lever Arm^2))

Bending stress in lever of elliptical cross section given bending moment

LaTeX Go Bending Stress in Lever Arm = (32*Bending Moment in Lever)/(pi*Minor Axis of Lever Ellipse Section*(Major Axis of Lever Ellipse Section^2))

Bending stress in lever of rectangular cross section given bending moment

LaTeX Go Bending Stress in Lever Arm = (32*Bending Moment in Lever)/(pi*Width of Lever Arm*(Depth of Lever Arm^2))

Maximum bending moment in lever

LaTeX Go Bending Moment in Lever = Effort on Lever*((Length of Effort Arm)-(Diameter of Lever Fulcrum Pin))

Load using Lengths and Effort Formula

LaTeX Go

Load on lever = Length of Effort Arm*Effort on Lever/Length of Load Arm
W = l₁*P/l₂

What is lever?

A lever is defined as a mechanical device in the form of a rigid bar pivoted about the fulcrum to multiply or transfer the force.

How to Calculate Load using Lengths and Effort?

Load using Lengths and Effort calculator uses Load on lever = Length of Effort Arm*Effort on Lever/Length of Load Arm to calculate the Load on lever, The Load using Lengths and Effort formula is defined as the ratio of the product of the length of effort arm and effort to the length of the load arm. Load on lever is denoted by W symbol.

How to calculate Load using Lengths and Effort using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Load using Lengths and Effort, enter Length of Effort Arm (l₁), Effort on Lever (P) & Length of Load Arm (l₂) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Load using Lengths and Effort calculation can be explained with given input values -> 2785.263 = 0.9*294/0.095.

FAQ

What is Load using Lengths and Effort?

The Load using Lengths and Effort formula is defined as the ratio of the product of the length of effort arm and effort to the length of the load arm and is represented as W = l₁*P/l₂ or Load on lever = Length of Effort Arm*Effort on Lever/Length of Load Arm. Length of effort arm is defined as the length of the arm of the lever onto which the effort force is applied, Effort on Lever is the force applied on the input of the lever to overcome the resistance to get the work done by the machine & Length of Load Arm is the length of the arm of a lever on the end on which the load is exerted.

How to calculate Load using Lengths and Effort?

The Load using Lengths and Effort formula is defined as the ratio of the product of the length of effort arm and effort to the length of the load arm is calculated using Load on lever = Length of Effort Arm*Effort on Lever/Length of Load Arm. To calculate Load using Lengths and Effort, you need Length of Effort Arm (l₁), Effort on Lever (P) & Length of Load Arm (l₂). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Length of Effort Arm, Effort on Lever & Length of Load Arm and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
