Basic Machines Part 2
This online engineering PDH course discusses the relationship between Work and Power and their different their applications. It also describes the relationship between Force-Pressure and their different applications. Furthermore, this course explains the basics of hydrostatic and hydraulic liquids and highlights their respective machines. The last chapter of this course illustrates the basic machine elements, identifies their respective machine functions and introduces the basics of clutches.
A machine is any device that helps you to do work. It may help by changing the amount of force or the speed of action. Machines may also be used to change the direction of a force or in other cases transform energy; for example, a generator transforms mechanical energy into electrical energy.
This 3 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, designers, manufacturers and anyone interested to gain an understanding of basic machine operations.
