Question: 1 ) [ 5 5 marks ] Well - polished rotating shaft ( w ) as shown in the following Figure is supported by two

1)[55 marks] Well-polished rotating shaft (w) as shown in the following Figure is supported by two ball bearings and it carries 675 lb fly-wheel. The shaft is made of 1141 steel quenched and tempered at \(1000{}^{\circ}\mathrm{F}\). Other dimensions are also given in the following Figure. Assume the shaft is massless. Consider only the fly-wheel force due to its mass.
Hint: Use Table A-21 for material properties data.
a. Find the critical bearing location on the shaft where calculate the \(\sigma_{\text {max }}=\) Maximum stress. (15 pts)
b. Below, to be consistent for all students, assume \(\sigma_{\max }=\mathbf{107.5}\mathbf{K s i}\) is given! Using this max. stress, what is Fatigue strength coefficient? Use both the table and exact calculation and compare them? (\(3+7\) pts)
c. Find the number of \( N \), revolutions(cycles) you expect it to last under given loading. (10 pts)
d. Find the maximum weight that allows for infinite life using uncorrected endurance limit and factor of safety is 1.(10 pts)
e. Assume 675 lb weight, find the \( d \), the shaft diameter for which you would predict a lifespan of 90000 revolutions. (10 pts)
