In the motorized rack-and-pinion system in a milling machine, the pinion has 50 teeth and a pitch
Question:
In the motorized rack-and-pinion system in a milling machine, the pinion has 50 teeth and a pitch radius of 0.75 in. (Figure P8.21). Over a certain range of its motion, the motor turns at 800 rpm.
(a) Determine the horizontal velocity of the rack.
(b) If a peak torque of 10 ft ? lb is supplied by the motor, determine the pulling force that is produced in the rack and transferred to the milling machine.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
