Question:

For the jack of Prob. 8.70, determine the magnitude of the couple M that must be applied to lower the automobile. Problem 8.70: The position of the automobile jack shown is controlled by a screw ABC that is single-threaded at each end (right-handed thread at A, left-handed thread at C). Each thread has a pitch of 2 mm and a mean diameter of 7.5 mm. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.15, determine the magnitude of the couple M that must be applied to raise the automobile.
