Hello,
I need to transmit motion between a servo motor and a pulley through a cable. In order to do that, I've screwed a pulley to the servo and fix the cable on both the motor pulley and the pulley. I am working in a scale where the radius of the cable cannot be neglected due to a precision...

Hi, I'm studying a hnc in mechanical engineering.
One of the maths problems I have been given involves a drum and cable. It states the diameter(0.8m), mass (3kg), initial velocity (0m/s), time to descend (0.5secs) and distance traveled (0.25m)
I need to find:

When to use ## V =-\int E ⋅ dl ## or ## V =\int E ⋅ dl ## ?
When i use ## V =-\int E ⋅ dl ##. i can not show that P = IV because ##\frac{ln \frac{b}{a}}{ln \frac{a}{b}} ≠ 1##
But the solution use ## V =\int E ⋅ dl ## I'm concerned about using "minus" .
hi, I'm designing a 50ftx50ft, 8-cable Cable Driven Parallel Robot and am thinking this is a pivotal decision. the corner posts are 10ft tall and the machine should be able to lift 100lbs at least 5ft off the ground. traveling speed of the end effector is less important than accuracy but I'm not...
Does light traveling through a fiber optic cable generate any sort of detectable electromagnetic field? Please forgive the stupid question. It’s something that popped into mind recently and google hasn’t adequately answered for me. I’m not a scientist or physicist. :blushing:
In order to do some welding a long way from a power socket, I have made up a 200m long ‘extension lead’ from some 6mm2 armour cable. The cable is needed for another job later on.

I have seen that typically most 110Kv and 330Kv lines around my place have not 4 wires on them (3 phases and one neutral) but rather 7 wires on them, which I suppose is 3 phases x2 which probably means two cables for each phase and a common neutral wire at the top of each post.
Now is my...
We're all told how circuits have to be closed and loop back to be able to have the electrons flowing and give things power, so is that the reason most outlet charges have two wires connected? If so, why are phone chargers only one wire, and how are they so thin?
Thanks!
