Outer Radius of Brake Pad given Area of Brake Pad Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Brake Pad Outer Radius = sqrt((2*Area of Brake Pad/Angular Dimension of Pad)+Brake Pad Inner Radius^2)
R_o = sqrt((2*A/θ_p)+R_i^2)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Brake Pad Outer Radius - (Measured in Meter) - Brake Pad Outer Radius is defined as the outer radius of the brake pad.
Area of Brake Pad - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Brake Pad is the actual area of the brake pad that we are using in a disk brake or a drum brake.
Angular Dimension of Pad - (Measured in Radian) - Angular Dimension of Pad specifies the angle of the annular pad.
Brake Pad Inner Radius - (Measured in Meter) - Brake Pad Inner Radius is defined as the inner radius of the brake pad.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area of Brake Pad: 5500 Square Millimeter --> 0.0055 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
Angular Dimension of Pad: 1.98 Radian --> 1.98 Radian No Conversion Required
Brake Pad Inner Radius: 100 Millimeter --> 0.1 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_o = sqrt((2*A/θ_p)+R_i^2) --> sqrt((2*0.0055/1.98)+0.1^2)

Evaluating ... ...

R_o = 0.124721912892465

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.124721912892465 Meter -->124.721912892465 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

124.721912892465 ≈ 124.7219 Millimeter <-- Brake Pad Outer Radius

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Define Disk Brake?

A disc brake is a type of brake that uses the calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc or a "rotor" to create friction. This action slows the rotation of a shaft, such as a vehicle axle, either to reduce its rotational speed or to hold it stationary.
