Coefficient of Friction for Hanging String
Coefficient of Friction for Hanging String is the measure of the frictional force that opposes the motion of a body hanging by a string.
Symbol: μhs
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be between 0 to 1.
Mass of Left Body
Mass of Left Body is the amount of matter in an object hanging from a string, which affects the motion of the system.
Symbol: m1
Measurement: WeightUnit: kg
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Mass of Right Body
Mass of Right Body is the amount of matter in an object hanging from a string, which affects its motion and oscillations.
Symbol: m2
Measurement: WeightUnit: kg
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Tension in String
Tension in String is the force exerted by the string on the hanging object, opposing its weight and keeping it suspended in the air.
Symbol: Tst
Measurement: ForceUnit: N
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Inclination of body
Inclination of body is the angle at which a body hangs from a string, measured from the vertical, affecting its motion and oscillations.
Symbol: θb
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Gravitational acceleration on Earth
Gravitational acceleration on Earth means that the velocity of an object in free fall will increase by 9.8 m/s2 every second.
Symbol: [g]
Value: 9.80665 m/s²
tan
The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle.
Syntax: tan(Angle)
sec
Secant is a trigonometric function that is defined ratio of the hypotenuse to the shorter side adjacent to an acute angle (in a right-angled triangle); the reciprocal of a cosine.
Syntax: sec(Angle)
