A furnace can supply heat steadily at 1200 K at a rate of 24000 kJ/min. The maximum amount of power (in kW) that can be produced by using the heat supplied by this furnace in an en...

In an arc welding process, the voltage and current are 30 V and 200 A, respectively. The cross-sectional area of the joint is 20 mm 2 and the welding speed is 5 mm/s. The heat requ...

A cylindrical transmission shaft of length 1.5 m and diameter 100 mm is made of a linear elastic material with a shear modulus of 80 GPa. While operating at 500 rpm, the angle of t...

A spot welding operation performed on two pieces of steel yielded a nugget with a diameter of 5 mm and a thickness of 1 mm. The welding time was 0.1 s. The melting energy for the s...

A single jet Pelton wheel operates at 300 rpm. The mean diameter of the wheel is 2 m. Operating head and dimensions of jet are such that water comes out of the jet with a velocity...

The aerodynamic drag on a sports car depends on its shape. The car has a drag coefficient of 0.1 with the windows and the roof closed. With the windows and the roof open, the drag...

A through hole is drilled in an aluminum alloy plate of 15 mm thickness with a drill bit of diameter 10 mm, at a feed of 0.25 mm/rev and a spindle speed of 1200 rpm. If the specifi...

A rope brake dynamometer attached to the crank shaft of an $$I.C.$$ engine measures a brake power of $$10$$ kW when the speed of rotation of the shaft is $$400$$ rad/s. The shaft t...

The torque (in N-m) exerted on the crank shaft of a two stroke engine can be described as is the crank angle as $$\,\,T = 10000 + 1000\sin 2\theta - 1200\,\cos 2\theta ,\,\,$$ wher...

In a single pass rolling operation, a $$20mm$$ thick plate with plate width of $$100mm$$, is reduced to $$18mm$$ thick. The roller radius is $$250mm$$ and rotational speed is $$10$...
