Torque on Shaft of Prony Brake Dynamometer Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Torque = Weight at Outer End of Lever*Distance between Weight and Center of Pulley
T = W_end*L_horizontal
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Total Torque - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Total Torque is the rotational force that causes an object to rotate, measured by a dynamometer, typically in units of newton-meters or foot-pounds.
Weight at Outer End of Lever - (Measured in Newton) - Weight at Outer End of Lever is the force exerted at the outer end of a lever in a dynamometer, used to measure torque or rotational force.
Distance between Weight and Center of Pulley - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between Weight and Center of Pulley is the length between the weight attached to a dynamometer and the center of the pulley.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight at Outer End of Lever: 19 Newton --> 19 Newton No Conversion Required
Distance between Weight and Center of Pulley: 0.6843 Meter --> 0.6843 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T = W_end*L_horizontal --> 19*0.6843

Evaluating ... ...

T = 13.0017
