Prove that the magnitude M of the couple required to overcome the frictional resistance of a conical bearing as
Explanation of Solution
Write the equation of the magnitude of the couple as follows;
Here, the coefficient of kinetic friction is
Show the free-body diagram of the conical bearing as in Figure 1.
It has been assumed that the normal force per unit area is inversely proportional to r.
Here, the distance between the point to the axis of the shaft is r, the change in distance is
Here,
