Principles of Mechanics

  • Force = Energy/distance.
  • Power = Energy/time.
  • A lever is used to trasmit energy applied over a longer distance to a shorter distance, in the same time, increasing the force applied at one end. This is the same as preservation of torque.
  • A gear functions like a lever, but it has multiple points of contact which help it to continuously transmit the torque to another gear, or a chain of gears in full rotations.

Resources

  • Youtube.com channel @artofrendering (if I'm right) has a lot of videos on mechanical principles.
