In the engine system shown, l = 250 mm and b = 100 mm. The connecting rod BD is assumed to be a 1.2-kg uniform slender rod and is attached to the 1.8-kg piston P. During a test of the system, crank AB is made to rotate with a constant angular velocity of 600 rpm clockwise with no force applied to the face of the piston. Determine the forces exerted on the connecting rod at B and D when θ = 180°. (Neglect the effect of the weight of the rod.)

- The parallelogram linkage shown moves in the vertical plane with the uniform 9.3-kg bar EF attached to the plate at E by a pin which is welded both to the plate and to the bar. A torque (not shown) is applied to link AB through its lower pin to drive the links in a clockwise direction. When e reaches 51°, the links have an angular acceleration and an angular velocity of 7.0 rad/s² and 2.3 rad/s, respectively. For this instant calculate the magnitudes of the force F and torque M supported by the pin at E.

Assuming that the tail propeller is not operating determine the final angular velocity of the cab after the speed of the main blades has been changed from I80 to 240 rpm.

Each of the four main blades is assumed to be a slender rod 14 ft weighing 55 lb.)arrow_forward
