Platform on Two Rotating Cylinders Model
|
Study classical mechanics with this simulation. Platform on Two Rotating Cylinders model displays the model of a platform resting on two equal cylinders are rotating with opposite angular velocities. There is kinetic friction between each cylinder and the platform. The separation between the cylinders and the coefficient of kinetic friction can be changed via textboxes. You can modify this simulation if you have Ejs installed by right-clicking within the plot and selecting "Open Ejs Model" from the pop-up menu item.
Two equal cylinders are rotating with opposite angular velocities. A bar is placed over them where it remains horizontal. The coefficient of dynamical friction between each cylinder and the bar is (mu in the simulation).
