I have a presentation on square cube law. But i don't have any numerical data to show.
How could i find the maximum size a animal could go. I know that by using square cube law we could say that greater the size of animal goes lesser its strength becomes. But how could i find the numerical...

What determines the maximum amount of weight an electric motor can lift / move for its size? So assuming the electric motor weighs a specific amount, what would be the limiting factor to how much weight it can move / lift for the weight it weighs?
So, I was helping someone with some science fiction stuff and got to poking into flight mechanics.
So we've got a balance of lift and weight, and drag and thrust.
The speed at which thrust and drag cancel determines the speed of flight. The speed of flight determines lift, and lift must cancel...
