A motorcycle's clutch hand lever is designed to receive a load from the rider's finger of 50 N at the location shown by the picture below. The lever pulls a wire to activate the clutch. The wire made of steel having allowable yield strength of 110 Mpa. The pivot is supported by M6 bolt (major diameter of 6 mm). Determine: a. the diameter of wire b. the shear stress on the bolt, assuming that the bolt is experiencing double shear load.
