Question: 2 . A square thread power screw is to carry a load of 3 KN . The screw is double threaded, has 4 mm pitch,

2. A square thread power screw is to carry a load of 3 KN . The screw is double threaded, has 4 mm pitch, 32 mm pitch diameter and mean diameter and 80 mm collar diameter.
(a) Calculate the minimum value of friction coefficient if the screw must be self-locked in the absence of collar friction.
(b) Assume that friction coefficient is present in all surfaces of contact. Determine the torque and mechanical advantage if the load must be raised in absence of collar friction.
(c) Find the torque required to overcome collar friction when the load is lowered.
