A 55kg load is suspended on the end of a cable, the other end of which is wound around a drum of diameter 500mm. The drum is rotated by a motor which has a torque output of 180NM and this lifts the load through a vertical height of 35m. The drum has a moment of inertia of 25 kgm2. Mass (m) = 55kg d = 500mm Torque output (T) = 180Nm h = 35m %3D Moment of inertia (I) = 25kgm²

Transcribed Image Text:A 55kg load is suspended on the end of a cable, the other end of which is wound around a
drum of diameter 500mm. The drum is rotated by a motor which has a torque output of 180NM
and this lifts the load through a vertical height of 35m. The drum has a moment of inertia
of 25 kgm².
Mass (m) = 55kg
d = 500mm
Torque output (T) = 180Nm
h = 35m
Moment of inertia (I) = 25kgm2
(a) Determine the time taken to lift the load
(b) Due to bearing wear, the drum bearing are replaced with heavy duty versions
which have a friction torque rating of 10NM. Calculate the effect that this will
have on the time to lift the load.
