Calculation:
The equation is a=(w^2)*r where a is the acceleration, w is the angular velocity and r is the radius.
First we must convert RPM to radians per second. There is 2(pi) radians per revolution and 60 seconds in a minute. So 10,000 RPM equals (10000*2(pi))/60, which rounds to 1047. We then simply enter these values into the equation. For our first calculation on space station v we get a=(1047)^2*0.455=498,775 m/s^2
Acceleration due to gravity equals 9.8 m/s^2, so if we divide our answer by that we can see that it is 50,895 times the acceleration due to gravity.

[@gordonlawrence4749]

There is another way of starting to understand the monster forces on a wheel when turning fast. IE the part of the wheel in contact with the ground is essentially stationary (relative to the ground). At the furthest point from the ground the speed at the top of the wheel is twice the speed of the car. So in effect the wheel from this perspective accelerates from stop to 2xV to stop in a single revolution. If the car is traveling 100m/s and the wheel circumference is 1 meter (both entirely possible), then the point in contact with the ground accelerates from zero to 200m/s and then stops every 10ms. This only gives the lateral forces which are sinusoidal, but you can also think of the vertical forces as the same but 90 degrees out of phase (cosine). Plot one against the other and you get a circle. I was given this example decades ago as an introduction to vector algebra for mechanics and electronics.

You talked about the rotational velocity of the wheel, but what about the linear velocity? There is a difference in the velocity at the bottom of the wheel, which is touching the ground and is therefore momentarily not moving, and the velocity at the top of the wheel which is moving twice the speed of the velocity of the car, relative to the ground. That type of acceleration and momentum must also be taken into account.

[@LadyAnuB]

1:00 ,you know that the wheels indicate that the car is going in reverse edit: maybe he could have used skillshare to prevent that from happening.

[@rangkara7201]

Well, when you record a wheel spinning using a camera with a shutter speed barely faster than the wheel rotation, it will made it look like the wheel is turning backwards.

Don't forget drag racing tires! Specifically with Top Fuel dragsters & Top Fuel Funny Cars tires are rated for 350 miles an hour and actually have gone 339.87 mph (Robert Hight in Funny Car) 😊

I think he's confusing relativistic mass, which is theorized to kick in as one approaches the speed of light, with centripetal 'force.' Unfortunately, with him making videos, he's spreading ignorance and calling it a science channel. Suck.

Imagine the forces the wheels and tyres on a top fuel dragster have to deal with. If only for a maximum of 4.5 seconds but these vehicles are going at speeds sometimes exceeding 300 mph. Let alone the 8000- 10000 horsepower piston engines that turn those wheels to propel these crazy fast cars down the track.

[@hermanloud3098]

It's amusing how little cracks at a molecular level can affect when using high speed, and temperature. Imagine being able to 3d print anything but at a molecular level or even atomic level.

"Or 1609 kilometers per hour for those of us living in the civilised world". Legend for pointing that out😂😂

[@AidRe]

Joti Smiri metrs per second is better and more accurate than measuring in km

[@Abooh]

TheMemeFrog So? It's still metric. The poke was directed towards the imperial system. And be honest, does it really make such a big difference if it's m/shor km/h? When we're moving 1609 km/h. If we travel for lets say an hour, is it so important that after 1609 kilometers that we also measure if we went 50 meters further? It doesnt.

[@gabesnead4725]

There's countries that use metric, and there's countries with the best military, highest gdp, and best space programs in the world, after all, it's our flag up there on that big white ball you see in the sky at night, not yours

[@Travis.Ladegast]

America's continued use of the imperial system (also created by an european) is for the same reason everyone and their brother is now gluten intolerant (even though it only affects 1% of the population). We want to feel special/unique, and have things that separate us from everyone else. That, and there is also the whole "I don't want to change" aspect of it too. Don't worry though. More and more industries, and organizations are using the metric system over here. For example, the military uses the the (6,8,10,12) digit grid coordinate system for maps based on 1km grid squares, and when learning land nav, you learn your 100m cadence (how many steps you take in 100m on average). Introducing metric measurements and fasteners to equipment is helping progress the change too. The biggest hurdle I foresee is the conversion from F to C. Everyone over here knows 72F degrees is a great day, and 32F degrees is freezing. If you start saying it going to be 22-23C outside, people are going to loose their minds. It is a slow process, but it is happening. Now, if we could change the time system to a base 10 system, life would be golden. And don't say we can't because we invented to concept of the second/minute/hour.

I apologize on behalf of my countrymen and their ridiculous butthurt about the metric joke. It was a good joke.

[@RealEngineering]

+Strategos Redwald that's okay, I knew it would rustle the jimmies of the very vocal few. Probably the same people that constantly bitch about my accent, no loss

[@nedyarbnexus9460]

+Real Engineering it made no sense to make that joke, your channels style is formal and highly educational. Normal channels I wouldn't even blink at but that was actually quite shocking. and remember who made that system and then past it down to us, you did, and the US tried to switch to the Metric system in the 1970's, but changing every sign in the country and forcing 300,000,000 people to learn a new system all of a sudden is not cheap and is going to cause some serious problems so you can't blame us for sticking to a slightly inferior system.

[@tr_slimey6811]

NedYarbNexus Okay, but other countries managed to convert to metric. Why is that such a big problem for you?

[@tr_slimey6811]

Strategos Redwald Thank you for understanding that it's only a joke. Unlike your fellow American in one of the above subcomments, you seem like a nice person.
