Related Factors Affecting Pulling Force

Updated:2017-03-07


Conclusion (appendix: mechanics analysis picture)  

I Pulling force =  foot and force of maximum static friction (positive pressure of foot and floor × friction ratio)


II Factors:

Height of rope: Less effort is used, lower the rope is;

Supporting angle: smaller the angle is, the bigger the pulling is;

Dragging arm: shorter the arm is, less effort it needs;

Potential energy transfers to energy of motion: force of power arm increases, then horizontal pulling power increases;

Pedal force of leg: bigger pedal force is, bigger horizontal component force is;

Material of shoe sole: bigger ratio of friction is, more stable upper of a shoe is, bigger pulling force it bears;

Body: stronger, bigger the gripping force is, stronger the holding force is.


III Best Status and Potentiality

Horizontal pulling force based on different holding angle:

30 degree pulling force = 19/20×G×√3

45 degree pulling force=19/20×G

60 degree pulling force=19/20×G×√3÷3
