Concept explainers
A double-threaded square-thread screw is shown in Figure 5-7. The pitch of a screw is the distance from the top of one thread to the same point on the top of the next thread. The lead is the distance the screw advances for each complete turn or revolution of the screw. In a double-threaded screw, the lead is twice the pitch. Given the number of turns and the amount of screw advance, determine the lead and pitch.
(a)
Evaluate the lead and pitch of the square thread A.
Answer to Problem 23A
The lead and pitch of the square thread A are
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Square advance is
Concept used:
For lead divide the square advance by number of turns. For pitch divide the lead by number of start.
Calculation:
Lead of the square thread is calculated as follows:
Divide the square advance
Pitch of the square thread is calculated as follows:
Thus, the lead and pitch of the square thread A are
Conclusion:
The lead and pitch of the square thread A are
(b)
Evaluate the lead and pitch of the square thread B.
Answer to Problem 23A
The lead and pitch of the square thread 'B' are
Explanation of Solution
Given:

Pitch of the square thread is calculated as follows:
Thus, the lead and pitch of the square thread 'B' are
Conclusion:
The lead and pitch of the square thread 'B' are
(c)
Evaluate the lead and pitch of the square thread C.
Answer to Problem 23A
The lead and pitch of the square thread 'C' are
Explanation of Solution
Given:

- A single-threaded (or single-start) square-thread screw is shown in Figure 5-6. The lead of a screw is the distance that the screw advances in one turn (revolution). The lead is equal to the pitch in a single-threaded screw. Given the number of turns and the amount of screw advance, determine the leads.arrow_forwardTime a Bullet Travels If the bullet in Problem 65 is traveling at 2,828 feet per second, how long does it take for the bullet to reach a height of 1,000 feet?arrow_forwardIn Figure 208, gear A is turning at 120 revolutions per minute and gear B is turning at 3.6 revolutions per second.
