Transcribed Image Text:A prop shaft of a heavy-duty truck has two bearings which are positioned at 3
metres from each other. The shaft must rotate at 30 rad/s when the truck travels
at the speed of 40 m/s. Such a shaft carries two masses of (MA = 10 kg) and
(Ms = 5 kg) acting at the extremities of the arms 0.45 m and 0.6 m long,
respectively. The planes in which these masses rotate are 1.2 m and 2.4 m,

Transcribed Image Text:respectively, from the left end bearing supporting the shaft. The angle between
the arms is 60°. If the masses are balanced by two counter-masses (named X
and Y) rotating with the shaft acting at a radius of 0.3 m and placed at 0.3 m
from each bearing centre:
2.1.
Draw a diagram illustrating the position of masses on the shaft.
2.2.
Calculate the dynamic force in Newtons. Tabulate the results.
2.3.
Calculate the moment acting on the shaft in Newton-metre. Tabulate the
results.
2.4.
Determine the magnitude of the Y balance mass using a vector diagram.
2.5
Determine the magnitude of the X balance mass using a vector diagram.
