Question: ( 9 . ) A shaft is supported in two bearings 2 . 4 m apart and projects 0 . 6 m beyond the bearings

(9.) A shaft is supported in two bearings 2.4m apart and projects 0.6m beyond the bearings at each end. The shaft carries three pulleys, one at each end and one at the middle of its length. The end pulleys have masses of 90kg and 50kg and their centres of mass are at 3.75mm and 5mm respectively from the shaft axis. The centre pulley has a mass of 70kg and its centre of mass is 6-25mm from the shaft axis. If the pulleys are arranged so as to give static balance, determine the dynamic forces produced on the bearings when the shaft rotates at 300revmin.
