2. An engine developing 45 kW at 1000 rpm is fitted with a cone clutch built inside the flywheel. The cone has a face angle of 12.5° and a maximum mean diameter of 500 mm. The coefficient of friction is 0.2. The normal pressure on the clutch face is not to exceed 0.1 N/mm2. Determine: a. the face width required, and b. the axial spring force necessary to engage the clutch.
