Question: The figure below shows an off - loading station at the end of a paper rolling machine. The finished paper rolls are 0 . 9

The figure below shows an off-loading station at the end of a paper rolling machine. The finished paper rolls are 0.9-mOD by 0.22-m ID by 3.63-m long and have a density of 984kgm3. The rolls are transferred from the machine conveyor (not shown) to the forklift truck by the V-linkage of the off-load station, which is rotated through 90 by an air cylinder. The paper then rolls onto the waiting forks of the truck. The forks are 38-mm thick by 100-mm wide by 1.2-m long and are tipped at a 3 angle from the horizontal. The V-links are rotated by the crank arm through a shaft that is 60-mm dia by 3.63 m long.
Determine the maximum torque applied to the shaft during the motion of the V-linkage.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
