Question: Question 1 A circular cross - section shaft is mated to a motor rotating at 1 5 0 0 rpm . The shaft is made

Question 1
A circular cross-section shaft is mated to a motor rotating at 1500 rpm . The shaft is made 40 C 8
steel and is used to transmit power to two pulleys of diameter 300 mm and 200 mm . The shaff
rest on two supports situated at 200 mm from the pulleys. The angle of wrap for the pulleys is
180 and the tensions on the belts are indicated in the diagram below.
Calculate the torque at the pulley A and pulley B.
Draw a sketch for the vertical loading.
Draw a sketch for the horizontal loading.
Calculate the reaction force at C.
Calculate the reaction force at D.
Calculate the vertical bending moments and show in a sketch.
Calculate the horizontal bending moments and show in a sketch.
Calculate the resultant bending moments and show in a sketch.
Caiculate the equivalent torque and equivalent bending moment.
Calculate the required shaft radius in shear and bending.
Question 2
A machine in the workshop has a spindle that rotates at 41.887902radsec when the input power
is 2 kW . The spindle is made from 45 C 8 carbon steel with a modulus of rigidity of 84kNmm2 and
the maximum allowable angle of twist is 0.25 per meter length.
Determine the torque in the spindle.
Determine the radius of the spindle.
Determine the factor of safety(FOS) if the maximum allowable shear stress for the shaft is
5 MPa .
Is the shaft diameter suitable for the spindle if the maximum allowable shear stress for the
shaft is 10 MPa .
