Calculating motor force based on acceleration required
Thanks for your help. Weight: 100 kg Required acceleration: +0.8 m/s per sec Wheel radius: 0.04 m Wheel width 0.04 m Tire friction coefficient: 0.3 Uphill slope: 5% Gravity acceleration constant: 9.82 Force needed for acceleration: 100*0.8 = 80 N Force needed to conquer tire friction: 100*0.03...- makterna

Calculating motor force based on acceleration required
I am inventing a product which can in short be descibed as a 24V electrical vehicle which will transport itself along a special track, and I am unsure how to calculate how much torque my DC motor will need. Car total weight: 100 kilograms Required acceleration: 0.8 m/s per second (or 0.06 G)...- makterna
