Which way do you turn wrench to remove nuts on P trap?

The SJ nut turns to the left to loosen


How does a lever increase the mechanical advantage?

It has to do with a type of force called torque. When you push down on a lever, the force you push with is multiplied by the length of the lever to produce a torque. If you have a very long lever, then you are multiplying your pushing force by a big number and can produce a big torque. It's an easy way to get a large force with little effort.


In which way you can store the power in electronic circuits?

In a battery or capacitor.


How do you calculate torque on parallel gear?

Torque = Force x Distance eg i sit on a bench 2 metres from the left supporting force. I way 60kg. I am then creating a clockwise torque of 60 x 9.8 x 2 (9.8 because that is equal to gravity) so 60 x 9.8 is my weight force (force) which is 588 Newtons. To calculate torque I then multiply that by the distance of 2 metres. So i would be creating a torque of 1176Nm. P.S a common misconception is that a scale like the one in your bathroom measures weight. That's wrong, the scale measures mass. Weight is a force and must be measured in Newtons. That is why i multiplied by gravity (9.8). mass x gravity = weight.


What is the difference between training and development?

Training is focused on individual tasks, all nuts and bolts ... how to turn a wrench. Also, training has a beginning and an end. Development is the whole person concept. Not only teaching them how to turn the wrench, but also why we turn the wrench and challenging them to figure out a better way to turn that wrench. It is focused more on cultivating the individual to give them the tools to work upward through greater job and relationship complexities. The job of development has no end. In the modern organization, staff development energizes an organization's culture by grooming it's future leaders.

How do you Install serpentine belt on 05 impala 3800ls?

To make sure you have placed the belt on the correct way, you can get a diagram from your local auto parts store. The adjuster is spring loaded, which you will need a torque wrench or you can use a wrench with a bar extention since there is a lot of pressure on the adjuster.

How do you use a torque wrench?

Why Use a Torque Wrench?A bolt sitting on your workbench is at rest regardless of whether it is made of metal or rubber. When you install the bolt in an application and begin to tighten it with a wrench it begins to stretch and load up a force along its length. Just like a rubber bolt, if you tighten a metal bolt too much it will break the bolt (or damage the application), but if it's not tight enough it will not have the proper preload to hold the application together. You could just tighten up the bolt as much as you can, but in most cases an engineer has calculated how much "give" should be between the bolted surfaces to assure minimal wear and maximum application life in whatever bumpy, cyclic environment the bolt is designed to be used. The answer to achieving the proper amount of preload is to use a torque wrench, and just as importantly to use it correctly. You don't. If you want to do it right you need a torque wrench. It is more important than people think to torque fasteners properly.+++It is - you can do a lot of damage with incorrect or uneven tightening. If a proper torque-wrench is unavailable it is sometimes possible to use a strong spring-balance on the handle of a standard socket-set, and use the standard formula relating tension, length and torque, but that is potentially inaccurate it's far, far better to use the correct tool!ALL of the above comments are absolutely correct- I would add only that just offhand I can think of 2 common applications on cars where use of a torque wrench is essential -Cylinder head bolts and trans pan bolts.


What is the torque for the pinion nut on a 68 Camaro 10-bolt rear end?

There are a couple different methods to correctly torque the nut on the pinion. One way that I have used in the past with excellent results,is to tighten the pinion nut real good and snug just as you feel the crush sleeve begin its resistance,and then you actually place an "inch pound" torque wrench(Dial or Bar style tends to be a little quicker and more exacting than a click style) with correct socket on pinion nut and rotate the pinion by way of the smaller torque wrench (ring gear and carrier removed).If the inch-pound torque wrench doesn't click before the pinion rotates(inch-pound wrench set approx @12-15),then snug the pinoin nut up with your 1/2 drive impact more.Tighten nut in SMALL increments.Dont overshoot it,other wise you run the risk of wasting the one time use crush sleeve and burning up the pinion bearings.If say the wrench clicks @10,11,12ish before the pinion rotates,but if set @ 15 or so,and the pinion rotates before the torque wrench clicks, you are in the right area.What you are doing is measuring the amount of "rotational drag" on the pinion with the inlb torque wrench.Another way is if the crush sleeve is replaced with a solid spacer,the nut can be torqued down with a regular pop wrench to about 60-75 ft/lbs.


How do you tighten rear axle nuts the right way?

All nuts and bolts for any vehicle has a torque spec( for a racher I think it's 47 ft-lbs.). from the manufacturer a torque wrench is the suggested way, but everyone I know just uses a 1/2 cordless impact gun.

How counter propellors work?

Counter-propellers (proper name contra-rotating propellers) work by spinning in opposite directions. This cancels out torque in the same way as a helicopter uses rotors to cancel torque.

What is the proper way to clean and store a firearm?

"The proper and safest way to clean and store a firearm is to first make sure that there is no ammunition in any part of the firearm. Take it to a gun smith to have it properly cleaned and when you pick it up, they can sell you a trigger lock for your gun. Always store your gun in a lock box."
