Question 1
Calculate the power requirement for a machine moving over a rocky surface. If the rolling resistance coefficient is 0.05 and the weight of the truck is 10,000 kg, how much power is needed to maintain a speed of 10 m/s?
💡 Hint: Remember to calculate force using the rolling resistance coefficient and the weight.
Question 2
You have two machines: a wheeled loader rated at 150 horsepower and a crawler loader at 200 horsepower. The wheeled loader struggles to maintain speed on a muddy terrain while the crawler performs efficiently. Discuss the implications of machine selection based on rolling resistance.
💡 Hint: Think about the relationship between horsepower and terrain conditions.
