A small lab scale has a rigid L-shaped frame ABC consisting of a horizontal aim AB (length b = 30 cm) and a vertical arm BC (length c = 20 cm) pivoted at point B. The pivot is attached to the outer frame BCD that stands on a laboratory bench. The position of the pointer at C is controlled by two parallel springs, each having a spring constant k = 3650 N/m. that are attached to a threaded rod. The pitch of the threads is p = 1.5 mm. If the weight is 65 N. how many revolutions of the nut are required to bring the pointer back to the mark?
The device shown in the figure consists of a prismatic rigid pointer ABC supported by a uniform translational spring of stiffness k = 950 N/m. The spring is positioned a distance P = 165 nun from the pinned end A of the pointer. The device is adjusted so that, when there is no load P, the pointer reads zero on the angular scale. (a) If the load P = 11 N, al what distance .v should the load be placed so that the pointer will read ?? = 2.5° on the scale (see figure part a)? (b) Repeal part (a) if a rotational spring E1= kb-6 is added al A (see figure part b). (c) Lel.x = 7b/8.What is P maxif 0 cannot exceed 2"? Include spring krin your analysis. (d) Now, if the weight of the pointer ABC is known to be W =3N and the weight or the spring is Ws= 2.75 N, what initial angular position (Left in degrees) of the pointer will result in a zero reading on the angular scale once the pointer is released from rest? Assume P = kr=0. (e) If the pointer is rotated lo a vertical position (see figure part c), find the required load P applied at mid-height of the pointer that will result in a pointer reading of 0 = 2.5" on the scale. Consider the weight of the pointer W. in your analysis.
