Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The four major factors to be considered when installing a motor control in concern with the power system.

Explanation of Solution

The electrical connections that are associated with a motor, machine, and control unit are easy or complex. However, the below-listed factors should be considered while installing a motor and its control.

  • Power source –– Check whether the motor and control unit require a single-phase or three-phase power supply with rated voltage and current.
  • Motor connections –– A motor connection should be made based on the information found on the name plate of a motor. The name plate of a motor contains information such as horsepower, service factor, voltage, and full load current rating.
  • Controller type –– In general, a motor requires simple controller that starts and stops the motor. In addition, a motor may require controllers that vary the speed of the motor at specified time, inching, and jogging.
  • Environment –– The environment should not affect a control unit. The elevated temperature and moisture may affect a control unit.

Problem 6 (Optional, extra 6 points) 150 mm 150 mm 120 mm 80 mm 60 mm PROBLEM 18.103 A 2.5 kg homogeneous disk of radius 80 mm rotates with an angular velocity ₁ with respect to arm ABC, which is welded to a shaft DCE rotating as shown at the constant rate w212 rad/s. Friction in the bearing at A causes ₁ to decrease at the rate of 15 rad/s². Determine the dynamic reactions at D and E at a time when ₁ has decreased to 50 rad/s. Answer: 5=-22.01 +26.8} N E=-21.2-5.20Ĵ N
Problem 1. Two uniform rods AB and CE, each of weight 3 lb and length 2 ft, are welded to each other at their midpoints. Knowing that this assembly has an angular velocity of constant magnitude c = 12 rad/s, determine: (1). the magnitude and direction of the angular momentum HD of the assembly about D. (2). the dynamic reactions (ignore mg) at the bearings at A and B. 9 in. 3 in. 03 9 in. 3 in. Answers: HD = 0.162 i +0.184 j slug-ft²/s HG = 2.21 k Ay =-1.1 lb; Az = 0; By = 1.1 lb; B₂ = 0.
Problem 5 (Optional, extra 6 points) A 6-lb homogeneous disk of radius 3 in. spins as shown at the constant rate w₁ = 60 rad/s. The disk is supported by the fork-ended rod AB, which is welded to the vertical shaft CBD. The system is at rest when a couple Mo= (0.25ft-lb)j is applied to the shaft for 2 s and then removed. Determine the dynamic reactions at C and D before and after the couple has been removed at 2 s. 4 in. C B Mo 5 in 4 in. Note: 2 rotating around CD induced by Mo is NOT constant before Mo is removed. and ₂ (two unknowns) are related by the equation: ₂ =0+ w₂t 3 in. Partial Answer (after Mo has been removed): C-7.81+7.43k lb D -7.81 7.43 lb
