Wrench Definition and 56 Threads

I've solved for the moment using the cross product where my r = 0i+0.06j+0.03k m and my F = 100i + 150j + 0k. I got my moment to be M= 4.5,3,-6. I know a wrench equivalent force must be parallel to the force (I am assuming this means the resultant force in this case), but how do I apply that...

Milwaukee makes a cordless right angle impact wrench, 2565-20. As part of their M12 line of power tools. A YouTube channel tested the performance of the tool, with their different batteries. I'm having difficulty in understanding the observations. It seems that higher output current batteries do...

Hey There, I was just thinking up some ideas for machines that are independent of the ground to use in my work shop. I came across an idea but still haven’t made the machine, the machine is placed on the shaft of the wrench. I would like to know if this machine can successfully turn the...

One time a door got locked with the keys inside. I tried to kick the door open, but it can't even open. I saw in the movie they just kicked door once to open a door, it may not be true, unless you are the Rock. I know the lock services can open it using some kind of keys. But one time they...

Hi I'm trying to understand how to convert Whitworth Wrench sizes to across the flats (AF) sizes. I understand what Whitworth is, but I can't find any mathematical formula how to convert and perform the calculation yourself. When I look online, all I see are conversion tables, no formulas. I...

I need to tighten the nut for a trailer hitch ball to 250 ft lbs but I don't have a torque wrench that can do it. I read on a different forum that an alternate old school method to get 450 ft lbs of torque is: Torque = Force x Distance So in that forum's example, have a 180 lb person stand on...

A car service center used a hydraulic impact torque (is this the one used?) on the car tire nuts. See video. The car tire nut are rated at 88 ft lbs torque. What is the estimated torque in the hydraulic impact torque? Could it be double or more? I know he should have used a torque wrench but...

Here's a diagram of the problem. There are 3 possible solutions: 163 in-lb clockwise, 163 in-lb counterclockwise, 82.7 clockwise or none of them. After attempting the problem the closest I got to was 82.7 but that was wrong so I'm still stuck.

So basically what I had to do was: 1. take a Allen wrench and let it come in contact with an iron nail. Nothing happened here. None of the objects are magnetic. 2. take the Allen wrench and let it touch the North end of a magnet. Then let the wrench come in Contact with the iron nail. Here the...

In addition, with his left hand he exerts a 90-N force as shown in order to secure the socket onto the bolt head. Determine the equivalent force–couple system at O. Then find...

Hello All I have recently been trying to get my head around torque and think I am getting there. but I am struggling to understand the different of using a wrench to move an object i.e a bolt and using a belt to move something ok i.e an alternator. I don't get is it the entire lenth of...

I am currently working on a robotic manipulation problem and need to form a model for how an object responds. I start by writing up the equations of motion for the body, the motion is then constrained by an additional constraint equation. However, I am new to the notions of twists and wrenches...

This might be of interesting to beginning mechanical engineering students. If you're familiar with equivalent systems of forces and couples, any system can be reduced into a single force and single couple that's parallel to the force--a.k.a. a "wrench." I made a 3D visualization for reducing...

Background This started out as a question, but answered itself in the process of being written up. I thought I'd post it anyway, in case it might help clarify something for someone else. It is an alternative derivation of the solution to a (similar) question asked in Six Not-So-Easy Pieces...

If someone could also clarify how to go about this one. Does the wrench added make it a parallel circuit? I found the voltage of the initial circuit by simply doing V = IR = (3)(10) = 30 V. The current flowing through the 4 ohm resistor must be the same as before... so the current for...

I've got a torque wrench attached to a multiplier that is attached to a crows foot, and I'm trying to spec the input torque (at the wrench head) that will give us a corresponding output torque (at the crows foot). I am aware of the calculations that need to be made when a crows foot (alone)...
