Question 1:
[5 Marks]
A rotor has the following properties.
If the shaft is balanced by two counter masses located at 100 mm radii and 120 mm respectively and revolving in planes midway of planes 1 and 2, and on a distance of 80 mm on the right of plane 4, find the followings:
(a) Draw two space diagrams: (i) the positions of the planes along the shaft and (ii) the angular positions of the masses (angles measured from positive x - axis).
(b) Construct a table and tabulate all necessary data.
(c) Choose appropriate scales for the couple and force diagrams and write them clearly.
(d) Draw the couple diagram.
(e) Draw the force diagram.
(f) Determine the magnitude of the balance masses.
(g) Determine the angular positions of the balance masses from the positive \( x \)-axis.
