    Static pressure in a water pipe system

    I have a problem where I want to find out the static pressure over a city in a water pipe system. As I know the elevations over the city I was first thinking of just using p = rho * g * h, but this should only apply if the pipe system were under water (if I use the density of water at least). So...

    How is static torque calculated for constant speed?

    The way I have understood it is that dynamic torque involves angular acceleration, while static torque has zero angular acceleration: α =Δω/Δt = 0 But static torque still has centripetal acceleration with constant speed: ac = v2/r where v is linear velocity, and r is the radius Then F = mac...

    Understanding Static Friction on a Ramp: Why is the Object Stationary?

    Hi , The Static Friction force of an object on a ramp(inclined plane) making an angle with the horizontal is greater than the weight component down the ramp. My textbook says that this means that the object on the ramp is stationary as the frictional force is greater than the weight component...

    Static friction confusion -- Friction versus the Normal force

    I am a bit confused. We have an inclined plane. So I know that Ffmax=μ*N and μ is the coefficient of friction calculated as tgθ (θ is the angle at which the body is on the verge of sliding) and also Ff<=Ffmax And we know that the force that makes the body slide is mgsinθ. So as the angle...
