A torsion-bar spring consists of a prismatic bar, usually of round cross section, that is twisted at one end and held fast at th

e other to form a stiff spring. An engineer needs a stiffer one than usual and so considers building in both ends and applying the torque somewhere in the central portion of the span, as shown in the figure. This effectively creates two springs in parallel.
The engineer is forced by geometric considerations to apply the torque on the spring at the location x = 0.37l. For a uniform-diameter spring, this would cause one leg of the span to be underutilized when both legs have the same diameter. For optimal design the diameter of each leg should be designed such that the maximum shear stress in each leg is the same Using x = 0.37l, l=10 in, T=1,500 lbf.in, and G = 10.4 Mpsi, design the spring such that the maximum shear stresses in each leg are equal and the spring will have the same spring rate (angle of twist) as a uniform-diameter bar with T=1,500 lbf in, x=1/2-5 in, and d1=d2=0.5
Find the required diameters of each leg:

Answer:

d₁ = 0.29 in

d₂ = 0.505 in

Explanation:

Given:

T = 1500 lbf in

L = 10 in

x = 0.5 L = 5 in

T_{1} =\frac{T(L-x)}{L} =\frac{1500*(10-5)}{10} =750lbfin

First case: T = T₁ + T₂

T₂ = T - T₁ = 1500 - 750 = 750 lbf in

If the shafts are in series:

θ = θ₁ + θ₂

θ = ((T₁ * L₁)/GJ) + ((T₂ * L₂)/GJ)

Second case: If d₁ ≠ d₂

θ = ((T₁ * L₁)/GJ₁) + ((T₂ * L₂)/GJ₂) = 0 (eq. 1)

t₁ = t₂

\frac{16T_{1} }{\pi d_{1}^{3}  } =\frac{16T_{2} }{\pi d_{2}^{3}  } (eq. 2)

T₁ + T₂ = 1500 (eq. 3)

θ₁ first case = θ₁ second case

Replacing:

\frac{750*5}{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*0.5^{4}  } =\frac{T_{1}*3.7 }{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*d_{1} ^{4}  }\\T_{1} =16216d_{1} ^{4}

The same way to θ₂:

\frac{750*5}{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*0.5^{4}  } =\frac{T_{2}*6.3 }{G(\frac{\pi }{32})*d_{2} ^{4}  } \\T_{2} =9523.8d_{2} ^{4}

From equation 2, we have:

d₁ = 0.587 * d₂

From equation 3, we have:

d₂ = 0.505 in

d₁ = 0.29 in

An electric flux of 147 N*m^2/C passes through a flat horizontal surface that has an area of 0.824 m^2. The flux is due to a uni
Tresset [83]

Answer:231.16 N/C

Explanation:

Given

Electric Flux=147 N-m^2/C

Area(A)=0.824 m^2

Given Field point above 31.6 ^{\circ}

Therefore angle between Area vector Electric Field =90-31.6=58.4^{\circ}

We know that Flux is given by

\phi =\vec{E}\cdot \vec{A}

\phi =EAcos\theta

147=E\times 0.824\times cos(58.4)

E=231.16 N/C

What is an internal resistance?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Internal resistance refers to the opposition to the flow of current offered by the cells and batteries themselves resulting in the generation of heat. Internal resistance is measured in Ohms. ... Example: 1 The potential difference across the cell when no current flows through the circuit is 3 V.

A uniform disk with a 25 cm radius swings without friction about a nail through the rim. If it is released from rest from a posi
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

During the swing , the center of mass will go down due to which disc will lose potential energy which will be converted into rotational kinetic energy

mgh = 1/2 I ω² where m is mass of the disc , h is height by which c.m goes down which will be equal to radius of disc , I is moment of inertia of disc about the nail at rim , ω is angular velocity .

mgr  = 1/2 x ( 1/2 m r²+ mr²) x ω²

gr  = 1/2 x 1/2  r² x ω² + 1/2r² x ω²

g = 1 / 4 x ω² r + 1 / 2 x ω² r

g = 3  x ω² r/ 4

ω² = 4g /3 r

= 4 x 9.8 /  3 x  .25

= 52.26

ω = 7.23  rad / s .
