mechanical engineering - Pound-force (lbf) vs Pound-mass (lbm ...
2015年8月25日 · 1 pound mass is that mass that weighs one pound in 1 g gravity. For most practical cases, a pound mass and a pound weight define the same amount of stuff on the surface of the earth. To define a pound mass we rearrange Newton's law of F = mA to. m = F/A. then plug in the particulars to get pound mass: 1 pound mass = (1 pound force)/(32.174 ft/s²)
pound force and pound mass - Engineering Stack Exchange
2021年2月16日 · By example, an object with a mass of 5 lb $_m$ has a mass of 2.2680 kg regardless of where it sits (e.g. what planet). But this mass. exerts 5 lb $_f$ as its weight on earth; exerts 0.827 lb $_f$ as its weight on the moon with gravitation 5.32 ft/s $^2$ By inversion, an object that exerts 5 lb $_f$ as its weight on the moon has a mass of 30.2 ...

2022年4月19日 · In the Imperial system the mass unit is the slug [sl], and is derived from the pound-force by defining it as the mass that will accelerate at $1 ft/s^2$ when a $1 lb_f$ acts upon it. The density of water is $1.940 sl/ft^3$ at 39 °F (4 …
simulation - Where does weight mass conversion ratio '0.00259' …
2016年8月22日 · I think this is very fundamental question. I am wondering why 0.00259 is used as weight-mass conversion ratio, when inch/pound unit is used in Nastran.
Force at end of pivot beam, based on total mass and CG?
2023年6月13日 · Pound-force (lbf) vs Pound-mass (lbm) 3. Design a beam that is straightened with force on one end. 4 ...
Understanding required torque for a motor lifting a weight
2015年5月14日 · 5 cm = 0.05 m. The gravitational force on your 450 g mass is 4.4 N as you say, so the torque just to keep up with gravity is (4.4 N)(0.05 m) = 0.22 Nm. However, that is the absolute minimum torque just to keep the system in steady state. It leaves nothing for actually accellerating the mass and for overcoming the inevitable friction.
Mass and weight of air in a room - Engineering Stack Exchange
A pound force is defined as the force required to accelerate a slug at 1 ft/s^2. The density of air is $\rho = 0.0724 \ lb_m/ft^3 = 0.0724/32.2 \ slugs/ft^3$ The weight of the air is $\rho V g = 0.0724/32.2 \ slugs/ft^3 \cdot32.2 ft/s^2\cdot 6000 ft^3 = 0.0724\cdot 6000 \ …
Lifting a Mass with one or multiple motors
2020年2月19日 · Two people each exerting 50 pounds can lift a 100 pound object; two levers double the force applied; two locomotives double the pulling power, etc. Share Improve this answer
units check for horsepower to weight (Hp/W)
2022年3月29日 · $\begingroup$ using horsepower, the units will be HP/pound or hp/ton most likely. Hp has a conversion factor in it, 33000 ft-lb/min/HP. $\endgroup$ – Tiger Guy
Could air-launched space planes reach escape velocities?
2015年2月7日 · M2 = start mass M1 = end mass g = gravitational constant (~~= 10 m/s/s) Call M2/M1 = mass ratio = MR. Using a modest by modern standards Isp of 300, to produce a delta-V of say 4000 m/S requires a MR of about 3.7 or end mass ~= 1/3.7 = 27% of total. So ABOUT 25% of the above 13,500 pounds could be delivered to lunar orbit =~ 3375 pounds = 1.5 tons
