A motor vehicle has a mass of 1.8 tonnes and its wheelbase is 3 m. The centre of gravity of the vehicle is situated in the centr

al plane 0.9 m above the ground and 1.7 m behind the front axle. When moving on the level at 90 km/h the brakes applied and it comes to a rest in a distance of 50 m.
Calculate the normal reactions at the front and rear wheels during the braking period and the least coefficient of friction required between the tyres and the road. (Assume g = 10 m/s2)

Answer:

1) The normal reactions at the front wheel is 9909.375 N

The normal reactions at the rear wheel is 8090.625 N

2) The least coefficient of friction required between the tyres and the road is 0.625

Explanation:

1) The parameters given are as follows;

Speed, u = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

Distance, s it takes to come to rest = 50 m

Mass, m = 1.8 tonnes = 1,800 kg

From the equation of motion, we have;

v² - u² = 2·a·s

Where:

v = Final velocity = 0 m/s

a = acceleration

∴ 0² - 25² = 2 × a × 50

a = -6.25 m/s²

Force, F =  mass, m × a = 1,800 × (-6.25) = -11,250 N

The coefficient of friction, μ, is given as follows;

\mu =\dfrac{u^2}{2 \times g \times s} = \dfrac{25^2}{2 \times 10 \times 50} = 0.625

Weight transfer is given as follows;

W_{t}=\dfrac{0.625 \times 0.9}{3}\times \dfrac{6.25}{10}\times 18000 = 2109.375 \, N

Therefore, we have for the car at rest;

Taking moment about the Center of Gravity CG;

F_R × 1.3 = 1.7 × F_F

F_R + F_F = 18000

F_R + \dfrac{1.3 }{1.7} \times  F_R = 18000

F_R = 18000*17/30 = 10200 N

F_F = 18000 N - 10200 N = 7800 N

Hence with the weight transfer, we have;

The normal reactions at the rear wheel F_R  = 10200 N - 2109.375 N = 8090.625 N

The normal reactions at the front wheel F_F =  7800 N + 2109.375 N = 9909.375 N

2) The least coefficient of friction, μ, is given as follows;

\mu = \dfrac{F}{R} =  \dfrac{11250}{18000} = 0.625

The least coefficient of friction, μ = 0.625.

KIM [24]

Answer:

power = 49.95 W

and it is self locking screw

Explanation:

given data

weight W = 100 kg = 1000 N

diameter d = 20mm

pitch p = 2mm

friction coefficient of steel f = 0.1

Gravity constant is g = 10 N/kg

solution

we know T is

T = w tan(α + φ ) \frac{dm}{2}     ...................1

here dm is = do - 0.5 P

dm = 20 - 1

dm = 19 mm

and

tan(α) = \frac{L}{\pi dm}      ...............2

here lead L = n × p

so tan(α) = \frac{2\times 2}{\pi 19}

α = 3.83°  

and

f = 0.1

so tanφ = 0.1

so that φ = 5.71°

and  now we will put all value in equation 1 we get

T = 1000 × tan(3.83 + 5.71 ) \frac{19\times 10^{-3}}{2}  

T = 1.59 Nm

so

power = \frac{2\pi N \ T }{60}     .................3

put here value

power = \frac{2\pi \times 300\times 1.59}{60}

power = 49.95 W

and

as φ > α

so it is self locking screw

A converging-diverging nozzle has an area ratio of 5.9. (1) Determine the (P0/Pt) values corresponding to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

The Total pressure is the overall of fixed or static pressure p, the dynamic pressure q, as well as gravitational head. Total pressure can also be referred to as the measure of the overall energy of the airstream, and is the same to static pressure plus velocity pressure.

kindly check the step by step solution in the attached image below to Determine the (P0/Pt) values corresponding to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd critical points.

Answer:

// Program is written in C++

// Comments are used to explain some lines

// Only the required function is written. The main method is excluded.

#include<bits/stdc++.h>

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int divSum(int num)

{

// The next line declares the final result of summation of divisors. The variable declared is also

//initialised to 0

int result = 0;

// find all numbers which divide 'num'

for (int i=2; i<=(num/2); i++)

{

// if 'i' is divisor of 'num'

if (num%i==0)

{

if (i==(num/i))

result += i; //add divisor to result

else

result += (i + num/i); //add divisor to result

}

}

cout<<result+1;

A 20-mm-diameter steel bar is to be used as a torsion spring. If the torsional stress in the bar is not to exceed 110 MPa when o
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

1.887 m

Explanation:

(15 *pi)/180

= 0.2618 rad

Polar moment

= Pi*d⁴/32

= (22/7*20⁴)/32

= 15707.96

Torque on shaft

= ((22/7)*20³*110)/16

= 172857.14

= 172.8nm

Shear modulus

G = 79.3

L = Gjθ/T

= 79.3x10⁹x(1.571*10^-8)x0.2618/172.8

= 1.887 m

The length of the bar is therefore 1.887 meters
