# Wedge force and travel
# Scope: Single frictionless wedge; quasistatic horizontal drive.
# Status: illustrative worked example; engineering review pending.
# Inputs are example values. Checks are editable example requirements, not standards.

load = 500 N
angle = 10 deg

drive := load*tan(angle) [N]

check drive budget: drive <= 100 N

scenario alternative: load = 400 N
