Re: Physics Quiz 3

You were just a minute faster than me.

I think I saw the effect you mention in my model. Does it speed up but not gain torque (that is, omega_w increases but omega_p would not because friction does not increase)? Because tau_k is equal to a constant based on your reply to John

My physics knowledge doesn't extend this far yet. I think I have been told that speed and torque on a motor aren't necessarily linked in voltage control... but I don't understand the science behind that.
