Electric Zero: The New Gen of Bicycles

Hello. I'm William.

I'm a math and physics enthusiast who enjoys bike riding

today. I'll be discussing about my potential design for the

new generation of bicycles.

Electric zero it's easy and introduction as a bike enthusiast.

I wondered if I could use the power exerted from

peddling to create some form of useful energy.

After all, it takes quite a bit of effort to

do speed cycling, go up steep hills and ensure long

distance routes.

As I went through my studies in physics and calculus

as since the correlation between my favorite physical activity and

the sciences fascinated by the relationship, An idea struck me,

I decided to create a series of engineering style problems

to illustrate a potential design of an electric generating bicycle.

Why is it easy?

While the components of the design may sound complex, it

is meant to be reliable and cost efficient machine and

joined by anyone.

We are integrating features without sacrificing than simplicity of an

ordinary bicycle and it's meant to motivate others to ride

a bike more often and to find pleasure in the

amount of work one puts into pedaling as well.

The design introduces a green source of energy.

This is where the set and zero comes from, its

utility equals fun and enjoyment.

Technical aspects involving bath.

Throughout this section we'll be using calculus, a dynamic study

in math mathematics to explain the mechanisms for the prototype,

like generator basics of differentiation.

To start off, we would like to cover some fundamental

concept regarding differentiation.

Differentiation is a branch of calculates that describes the behavior

of slopes and graphs or rates of change in a

parabolic graph.

The salts are the lines, attention to the curves.

One of these tangents describes an instantaneous rate of change.

How can a function fail to be differentiable?

A. A corner, be a discontinuity, see a vertical tangent.

Yeah, differentiation formulas applications of differentiation in the bike generator

design, differentiation will be used to create different parts of

the bicycle as explained in the fund problems with math

side, we will be using differentiation to find the derivative

of the energy function.

The power function as well, differentiation will be used to

determine whether the prototype, detachable and rechargeable battery is ideal

for the design.

Once we solve the problems, the solutions will lay out

the specific details of the parts needed to construct the

bike basics of integration.

Up until now we have covered the basics of differentiation

and some of its applications and the bike design.

There is another branch of calculus that plays a huge

role in the design.

This concept is called integration.

Imagine there is an infinite number of rectangles of a

really small thickness close to zero underneath the graph side

by side.

There will be so many of them that they would

fit, fill an area underneath the curve.

That is the whole idea of integration, that some of

the areas of these tangles with a really small with

this submission is called the Riemann sum.

All roughly speaking integration is the reverse of and differentiation.

All the formulas of integration are basically differentiation formulas that

go backwards, the Riemann sum, adding rectangles.

Imagine an infinite number of rectangles are underneath the curve

region. Formulas applications of integration in the bike generator design.

As observed as we observed, integration is a more elaborate

form of capitalist next step after differentiation, so it will

be sensible to use it in a more dynamic platform

in the following side, fun problems with math integration can

be used in the following ways to put a soviet

of the electric current flowing in the design to determine

the amount of space or volume the front, the frontal

gears of the bike take up fund problems with math.

Feel free to try these problems on your own, bypassing

the video and you and if you're stuck, you can

pause and have a look at the hints problem one,

number one, number two, number three.

Listen album too, solution solution Our three problems 3 solution

part one, Which in Part two, here is a diagram

of the basic of the basic.

Here's the basic circuit diagram of the generator of the

bike, decide problem for Yeah, solution boss level question one,

two free.

The diagram should look something like this.

Here's the solution.

Merciful economics question.

Just to end the math section a little bit.

On the easier side, hint solution.

Technical aspects involving physics in general.

Physics plays a huge role in the kingdom attics, dynamics,

the mechanics, the integration of moving parts and emotion of

the whole system itself.

In this section we'll be discussing some fundamental principles of

physics that we will need for the bicycle frames of

reference. Before we discuss the main principles of physics, it

is important to understand the frame of reference we're discussing

for the initial frame of reference.

We only focus on the moving parts of the bicycle,

nothing else that is surrounding their system.

This will allow us to apply Newton's 1st and 2nd

laws because the frames of reference are address or in

uniform motion, but they are not accelerating centripetal acceleration will

be sensible to use the theory of central pedal motion

to describe the bikes mechanisms, especially the pedals that rotate

the bikes gears when pedaling.

The velocity of the bikes pedal is always directed along

the tension of the circular gears.

Meanwhile, the meanwhile, acceleration is always directed towards the center

of the gear, centripetal acceleration formula centripetal force.

When discussing the bikes movement on its circular path, an

important factor to take into account is centripetal force.

A force acting perpendicular to the direction of the velocity

is always required in order for any object to move

continuously along a circular path.

Here's a diagram of central pet of centripetal force, centripetal

force formula torque.

When discussing about the bike pedals, we refer to the

but crank arm as the lever arm.

In physics terminology, the lever arm is the perpendicular distance

from the axis of rotation to the line, along which

force acts talk formula torque equals two F.

D. The generator, It is one of the main components

of the design.

This device converts mechanical energy in our case pedaling into

electrical energy.

When riding the bike, the force created by peddling would

eventually create a rotating force within the generator centripetal force.

What type of generator would be used?

A type of generator Reiter that would be used is

called an alternating current A C generator.

Unlike the current direct current dc generator, the A.

C. Generator does not require a commentator and attachment to

the armature, a set of quote copper wires of the

generator that reverses the direction of flow of electric current.

Instead, the A.

C generator has continuously brings, so there is much less

sparking and less wear on the brushes as it mainly

consists of stationary coils and revolving magnets generator is simple

to design and maintain.

This also makes it highly durable and last for a

long time diagram of an A.

C generator.

Fair day's law, Fair days all plays a huge role

in the function of the generator.

Michael Faraday of famous scientists who specialized in electromagnetism, explained

that the faster the change of the magnetic flux, the

greater the induced current and the greater the induced electoral

motive force or E.

M. F.

Fair Day's law formulas, problems with basics.

You're afraid to try them on your own by pausing

the video.

Important not to problem solvers.

All the solutions are written according to rules of significant

figures or SF or those who don't know the SF

rules. Try finding solutions to the correct number of significant

figures for others.

Your answers are not exactly like the solutions, but the

values are close then your answer is deemed correct.

Okay. Problem one solution problem two groups.

Problem too.

Solution. Album three solution conclusion math, especially calculates in physics

play huge roles in designing engineering and innovating.

This can be observed from the design of the electoral

trick generating bicycle prototype we have just discussed.

I used this design as a model to buy what

I have learned so far about calculus and physics.

Creating this project allowed me to connect and apply concepts

in the maths and sciences and exercise my creativity.

A graph on a grid is not just a curve

on a page.

Open stores to a whole new level of wonder and

motivation. Who knows, I might bring the design to life

and use it for us.

Research project in university.

I'm going to UBC engineering by the way.

Yeah, a great discovery solves a great problem but there

is a grain of discovery in the solution of any

problem. Your problem may be modest, but if it challenges

your curiosity and brings into play your inventive faculties and

if yourself it by your own means, you may experience

the tension and enjoy the trial discovery.

That's my favorite quote from George.

Cool. Yeah.
