Question 5

The figure shows a slider moving inwards on a rod with a velocity of 5 m/s when its distance from point O is 1 m. At this instant, velocity of slider is increasing at the rate of 10 m/s2. Rod has an angular velocity of 5 rad/s counter clockwise. The angle which the resultant absolute acceleration of slider makes with the line OR is

Question 6

The figure below shows a cantilever beam subjected to a load W at its free end. The natural frequency of free vibrations ( in rad/s) due to the load acting on it is :

Question 7

Two dampers are connected in parallel and placed between the moving parts of a machine which have a maximum relative velocity of 2 m/s. The damping coefficient of the dampers are 7 and 14 N-s/m. The maximum damping force exerted by the combination is :

Question 8

Each of the two gears in a mesh has 48 teeth and a module of 8 mm. The teeth are of 20 ° involute profile. The arc of contact is 2.25 times the circular pitch. What will be the addendum in mm?

Question 9

A punch press, fitted with a flywheel having a radius of gyration of 0.53 m, runs at 260 rev/min. the press is capable of punching 600 holes per hour. Each punching operation takes 1.5 seconds. The rating of the electric motor used is 2 kW. Determine the mass of the flywheel, if the speed of the flywheel should not drop below 240 rev/min.

Question 10

In a crank and slotted lever mechanism, the length between the fixed centres O1O2 is 10 cm and the crank length =5 cm. O1C=20 cm. If the quick return ratio of the mechanism is A and the length of stroke is B. Find B/A (in cm) ________.

Question 11

In the figureshown, the input M has a 48 teeth,B and D constitute a compound planet having 60 and 36 teeth repectivly.
If all the gears are of same pitch, find the ratio of speeds of gear M to gear L, assuming N to be fixed.
