6. A part of the structure for a factory automation system is
a beam that spans 30.0 in as shown in Figure P5-6. Loads
are applied at two points, each 8.0 in from a support. The
left load F₁ = 1800 lb remains constantly applied, while
the right load F₂ = 1800 lb is applied and removed fre-
quently as the machine cycles. Evaluate the beam at both
B and C.

30. Repeat Problem 28, except using a shaft that is rotating
and transmitting a torque of 150 N⚫m from the left bear-
ing to the middle of the shaft. Also, there is a profile key-
seat at the middle under the load.
28. The shaft shown in Figure P5-28 is supported by bear-
ings at each end, which have bores of 20.0 mm. Design
the shaft to carry the given load if it is steady and the
shaft is stationary. Make the dimension a as large as pos-
sible while keeping the stress safe. Determine the required

- find stress at Qarrow_forwardI had a theoretical question about attitude determination. In the attached images, I gave two axis and angles. The coefficient of the axes are the same and the angles are the same. The only difference is the vector basis. Lets say there is a rotation going from n hat to b hat. Then, you introduce a intermediate rotation s hat. So, I want to know if the DCM produced from both axis and angles will be the same or not. Does the vector basis affect the numerical value of the DCM? The DCM formula only cares about the coefficient of the axis and the angle. So, they should be the same right?arrow_forward3-15. A small fixed tube is shaped in the form of a vertical helix of radius a and helix angle y, that is, the tube always makes an angle y with the horizontal. A particle of mass m slides down the tube under the action of gravity. If there is a coefficient of friction μ between the tube and the particle, what is the steady-state speed of the particle? Let y γ 30° and assume that µ < 1/√3.arrow_forward
- The plate is moving at 0.6 mm/s when the force applied to the plate is 4mN. If the surface area of the plate in contact with the liquid is 0.5 m^2, deterimine the approximate viscosity of the liquid, assuming that the velocity distribution is linear.arrow_forward3-9. Given that the force acting on a particle has the following components: Fx = −x + y, Fy = x − y + y², F₂ = 0. Solve for the potential energy V. -arrow_forward2.5 (B). A steel rod of cross-sectional area 600 mm² and a coaxial copper tube of cross-sectional area 1000 mm² are firmly attached at their ends to form a compound bar. Determine the stress in the steel and in the copper when the temperature of the bar is raised by 80°C and an axial tensile force of 60 kN is applied. For steel, E = 200 GN/m² with x = 11 x 10-6 per °C. E = 100 GN/m² with α = 16.5 × 10-6 For copper, per °C. [E.I.E.] [94.6, 3.3 MN/m².]arrow_forward
- 3–16. A particle of mass m is embedded at a distance R from the center of a massless circular disk of radius R which can roll without slipping on the inside surface of a fixed circular cylinder of radius 3R. The disk is released with zero velocity from the position shown and rolls because of gravity, all motion taking place in the same vertical plane. Find: (a) the maximum velocity of the particle during the resulting motion; (b) the reaction force acting on the disk at the point of contact when it is at its lowest position.

A 75 mm diameter compound bar is constructed by shrinking a circular brass bush onto the outside of a 50 mm diameter solid steel rod. If the compound bar is then subjected to an axial compressive load of 160 kN determine the load carried by the steel rod and the brass bush and the compressive stress set up in each material. For steel, E 210 GN/m²; for brass, E = 100 GN/m². [I. Struct. E.] [100.3, 59.7 kN; 51.1, 24.3 MN/m².]arrow_forward
