See the engineering formula and units beside every numeric result

Structural coursework

Verify beam reaction and bending moment problems against textbook examples.

Mechanical design

Size shafts and fasteners using torque outputs and applied moment calculations.

Signals and DSP study

Check sampling, Nyquist, and signal power calculations for digital signal processing courses.

Category FAQ

How do I calculate beam reactions for a simply supported beam?

Sum moments about one support to find the other reaction, then sum vertical forces to find the first. A 10 kN point load at the centre of a 4 m beam gives 5 kN at each support.

What is the formula for torque?

Torque equals force times perpendicular distance from the pivot. A 50 N force applied 0.3 m from the axis produces 15 newton-metres of torque.

What is the difference between torque and moment?

Both are force times distance and use the same units. Torque usually refers to a twisting force on a shaft, while moment refers to a bending or rotating effect on a beam or structure.

What is the Nyquist frequency in DSP?

Nyquist frequency equals half the sampling rate. To capture a signal up to 20 kHz without aliasing, you need a sampling rate of at least 40 kHz, which is why CD audio uses 44.1 kHz.

How do I calculate the moment about a pivot point?

Multiply each force by its perpendicular distance from the pivot, then sum (counterclockwise positive, clockwise negative). A 100 N force 0.5 m to the right gives a clockwise moment of 50 newton-metres.
