What torque applied to the cylinder will raise the weight with an acceleration of 12ft per second? What will be the total bearing reaction?arrow_forwardA loaded porter governor has four links each of 250mm long.two revolving masses each of 3kg and a central dead weight of mass 20kg .all the links are attached to respective sleeves at a distance of 40mm from the axis of rotation.the masses revolve at a radius of 150 mm at minimum speed and at a radius of 200mm at maximum speed , Determine the range of speedarrow_forwardIn your job as a mechanical engineer you are designing aflywheel and clutch-plate system. DiskA is made of a lighter material than disk B, and the moment of inertia ofdisk A about the shaft is one-third that of disk B. The moment ofinertia of the shaft is negligible. With the clutch disconnected, A isbrought up to an angular speed v0; B is initially at rest. The acceleratingtorque is then removed from A, and A is coupled to B. (Ignorebearing friction.) The design specifications allow for a maximum of2400 J of thermal energy to be developed when the connection ismade. What can be the maximum value of the original kinetic energyof disk A so as not to exceedthe maximum allowed value of the thermalenergy?arrow_forward

The distances of the centers from the axis of rotation are 20 mm, 30 mm, and 20 mm and their angular positions are 120 degree apart. Find the amount of out-of-balance force and couple at 600 rpm.

The spring is attached to a cord that is fastened to point B on the 75-mm radius pulley. The pulley is fixed at point O , rotates backwards to the cocked position at 0 , and the rope wraps around the pulley and stretches the spring with a stiffness of k = 2000 N/m. The combined mass moment of inertia of all the rotating components about point O is 0.40 kg·m2. The swing is timed perfectly to strike a 145-gram baseball travelling with a speed of V0 = 10 m/s at a distance of h = 0.7 m away from point O. Knowing that the coefficient of restitution between the bat and ball is 0.59, determine the velocity of the baseball immediately after the impact. Assume that the ball is travelling primarily in the horizontal plane and that its spin is negligible.arrow_forward
