Question
A shaft is used to transmit power using a gear and pulley. The gear has a diameter of cm and drives a mating gear with an upward vertical tangential force The pressureinvolute angle for the gear is A belt drive with a pulley diameter of cm and weight of N supplies power to the shaft. The tight side tension of the belt drive is and the belt ratio for the system is The shaft is supported on bearings at and

Question
A solid shaft in a machine causes premature bearing failure due to the weight of the shaft. It is decided that the solid shaft should be replaced with a hollow shaft. The hollow shaft has the same outside diameter as the solid shaft d and a maximum allowable shear stress greater that the solid shaft. The hollow shaft and solid shaft have the same material density and length.
Calculate the inside diameter of the hollow shaft.
Determine the percentage weight saving when using the hollow shaft.
Question
A solid steel shaft with diameter has a modulus of rigidity of If the shaft is subject to a torque determine:
