Chapter 7.2, Problem 7.59P
A uniform beam is to be picked up by crane cables attached at A and B. Determine the distance a from the ends of the beam to the points where the cables should be attached if the maximum absolute value of the bending moment in the beam is to be as small as possible. (Hint: Draw the bending-moment diagram in terms of a, L, and the weight per unit length w, and then equate the absolute values of the largest positive and negative bending moments obtained.)

Q2/ A simple jet carburetor has to supply 5 Kg of air per minute. The air is at a pressure of 1.013 bar
and a temperature of 27 °C. Calculate the throat diameter of the choke for air flow velocity of 90 m/sec.
Take velocity coefficient to be 0.8. Assume isentropic flow and the flow to be compressible.
Quiz/ Determine the air-fuel ratio supplied at 5000 m altitude by a carburetor which is adjusted to give
an air-fuel ratio of 14:1 at sea level where air temperature is 27 °C and pressure is 1.013 bar. The
temperature of air decreases with altitude as given by the expression
The air pressure decreases with altitude as per relation h = 19200 log10 (1.013), where P is in bar. State
