Question
Chapter 32, Problem 1RQ
To determine
Identify how the dimension of the camshaft determines the power characteristics of the engine.
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution
More power is produced by an engine when more air and fuel is taken to the engine during the intake stroke. The intake stroke duration must be optimum to great better results. If the lift, duration and overlap is excessive, the performance will be affected and the fuel economy will be hurt. Hence, the lobe displacement angle of the camshaft that governs the duration of the intake stroke plays a major part in determining the power characteristics of the engine.

If the coefficient of static friction between his shoes and the ground is \( \mu_s = 0.4 \) and between the crate and the ground is \( \mu_c = 0.3 \), determine if the man is able to move the crate using the rope-and-pulley system shown. **Diagram Explanation:** The diagram illustrates a scenario where a man is attempting to pull a crate using a rope-and-pulley system. The setup is as follows: - **Crate (C):** Positioned on the ground with a rope attached. - **Rope:** Connects the crate to a pulley system and extends to the man. - **Pulley on Tree:** The rope runs over a pulley mounted on a tree which redirects the rope. - **Angles:** - The rope between the crate and tree forms a \(30^\circ\) angle with the horizontal. - The rope between the tree and the man makes a \(45^\circ\) angle with the horizontal. - **Man (A):** Pulling on the rope with the intention of moving the crate.
