Suction Cup Size Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Suction Cup Size.
A = F / P
Variables:
- A is the Suction Cup Size (m^2)
- F is the total force needed (N)
- P is the total pressure outside the cup (Pa)
To calculate the suction cup size, divide the total force needed by the total pressure outside the cup/
How to Calculate Suction Cup Size?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Suction Cup Size.
- First, determine the total force needed (N).
- Next, determine the total pressure outside the cup (Pa).
- Next, gather the formula from above = A = F / P.
- Finally, calculate the Suction Cup Size.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
total force needed (N) = 300
total pressure outside the cup (Pa) = 100,000
A = F / P = ?
