Значи, уште еднаш, што беше поентата на тоа што е возможно да тргне во 4-та брзина со спортски автомобил?!
Симо, кога веќе неможеш да ги стигнеш конкурентите по перформанси, мора некоја глупост без поента да направиш како "тргнување во 5-та".
How Torque Affects Performance How many times have you heard someone say, that car has such-and-such horsepower, and wondered what that actually means? One has to wonder what kind of horse is used as a benchmark and what that means when you step on the gas pedal. Although they are just about the only means for measuring engine power, horsepower and torque as they are currently measured, are actually very poor standards for comparing vehicles and their potential performance.
Horsepower is derived from a complex formula, but basically it is an amount of work over time. As it relates to cars, horsepower is most relevant to top end speed, not necessarily acceleration.
If you are using only one figure to compare vehicles, look at the torque rating, as it is the twisting force an engine can produce, and essentially how powerful the engine is. Examine horsepower and torque ratings on high end sports cars, and you will find that they are also matched by impressive torque ratings. Extremely heavy duty vehicles that require a lot of power and not necessarily high top speeds, such as pickups designed for towing (especially those with diesel engines), tend to have torque figures that dwarf their horsepower rating. Muscle cars and diesel engines, which are known for brute power, tend to have similar horsepower and torque ratings, with many of the most powerful models producing around 300 horsepower and 500 pounds of torque.
Ili..(bez da navlagame vo power to weight ratio).
Torque is more important. Torque is the amount of twisting force that the motor can produce. The more torque you have, the more power you get to the ground.
Horsepower is a unit of measurement for how much work can be done compared to the output of a horse. So the more horsepower you have, the more work can be done on the same task for the same amount of time allowed.
Take a 600hp sports car and try to pull a semi trailer with it. Not gonna work too well. The car has a low torque output. Take a 400hp semi truck and pull the same trailer. The semi has 4-5 times the torque output, so it can pull the trailer.
Now take those two motors, and lets mount them to the lightest frame and axles that will hold the weight, and make each combination weigh the same. Now race your MadMax contraptions...and guess what happens?Ili...
Motor od Korveta koj moze da trgne od mesto vo 4 ta staven vo sasija na (primer) Catheram ke bide pobrz od motor na Ferari
(koj ne moze da trgne ni vo vtora) staven vo istata sasija ...biejki ima poveke ...(you guessed it)..Torque.
Class dismissed.
