To determine

The key to prevent accidents in a welding shop.

Explanation of Solution

The key to prevent accidents in a welding shop are:

  1. Necessary protection must be taken while welding process otherwise it will harm the welder.
  2. Safety precautions must be taken. The safety precautions are mentioned on the manual of every equipment.
  3. There is no substitute to caution and common sense so each person take personal responsibility for their own safety and safety of others on the job.
  4. Follow all the safety rules, regulation and procedure of welding areas.
  5. Never engage in horseplay or practical jokes while at work.

2. A spur gear made of bronze drives a mid steel pinion with angular velocity ratio of 32: 1. The pressure angle is 14½. It transmits 5 kW at 1800 r.p.m. of pinion. Considering only strength, design the smallest diameter gears and find also necessary face width. The number of teeth should not be less than 15 teeth on either gear. The elastic strength of bronze may be taken as 84 MPa and of steel as 105 MPa. Lewis factor for 14½½ pressure angle may be taken 0.684 0.124 y = No. of teeth as [Ans. m 3 mm; b= 35 mm; Dp = 48 mm; D= 168 mm]
Q2. Determine the safety factors for the bracket rod shown in Figure 2 based on both the distortion-energy theory and the maximum shear theory and compare them. Given: The material is 2024-T4 aluminum with a yield strength of 47 000 psi. The rod length /= 6 in. and arm a = 8 in. The rod outside diameter od 1.5 in., id = 1 in, h=2 in., t=0.5 in., Load F= 1000 lb. Assumptions: The load is static and the assembly is at room temperature. Consider shear due to transverse loading as well as other stresses. (Note: solve in SI units) wall tube Figure 2 arm
The question has been set up with all the cuts needed to accurately derive expressions for V(x) and M(x). Using the cuts free body diagrams set up below, derive expressions for V(x) and M(x). If you use the method of cuts then validate your answers using calculus or vice versa.
