Why does increase in machine weight doesn't have much effect on clutch's power and energy? I do understand weight is basically normal force, and increase in normal force should make it harder for the transmission to push the increased amount of torque? What is the math behind it?

I didn't understand the following: The relationship between ##V_{CE} ## and ##I_C## is linear. In active region, even if the ##V_{CE}## increases, ##I_C## remains almost same for a given ##I_B##. So, how can the relation between the two can be linear? Can anyone tell me the utility of the...

Hi, I need to buy a bridge amplifier for my load cell. I need to be able to take at least 350SPS (samples per second). The only load cell amplifier I can find within my budget states that it has a selectable 10 SPS and 80 SPS output data rate. Heres the link to the amplifier...

Does the weight of a car or length of gears it has change the requirements for clutch strength or is the requirement solely dependent on the torque the engine applies to it? I see a lot of consensus that says the former, but I think it is the latter. An engine making 300 lb-ft should need a...

Hi, I wanted to make a locking mechanism. The problem was the forces on the actuator (solenoid in this case) where getting too high In image 2, the wedge shaped lock plate was exerting too much force on the actuator, which would unlock and could potentially break the actuator. Or I would have...

Today a professor of mine who teaches Electrical machines told us that a DC series motor should not be started without load. I wonder why is that so. Please provide a detailed explanation of this PF members. Thank you very much in advance.

How does the load capacitance affect the Crystal. For example, IC manufacturers recommend a Crystal and also load capacitance, like 25MHZ, 16pF. What happens if I choose a xtal with load cap of 10pF 25MHz? I am talking about changing the load caps recommended by IC manufacturer, not the ones in...
