Question: ( i ) 4 0 0 mm radius brake drum contacts a single shoe as shown in Figure 1 in Page 2 and sustains 2

(i)400 mm radius brake drum contacts a single shoe as shown in Figure 1 in Page 2 and sustains 200N-m torque at 500 rpm . For a coefficient of friction 0.25, determine: (a) Normal force on the shoe, (b) Required force F to apply the brake for clockwise rotation and counter clockwise rotation, (c) The dimension c required to make the brake self-locking, assuming the other dimensions remains the same and (d) Heat generated.
(ii) For long shoe brakes deduce the expression for equivalent coefficient of friction with neat sketch.
