1. A line shaft is driven by means of a motor placed vertically below it. The pulley on the
line shaft is 1.5mt. in diameter and has belt tensions of 5.4KN and 1.8KN on the tight side
and slack side of the belt respectively. Both these tensions may be assumed to be
vertical. The pulley is overhang from the shaft, the distance from center line of pulley to
the center of bearing is 400mm. assume maximum allowable shear stress of 42MPa.
Determine the diameter if the shaft. .(Chap.3)
2. A shaft made of mild steel is required to transmit 100KW at 300rpm. The supported
length of the shaft is 3mt. It carries two pulleys each weighing 1500N supported at a
distance of 1mt. from the ends respectively. Assuming 42MPa of shear stress, determine
the diameter of the shaft. .(Chap.3)
3. Design a close helical spring for a service load ranging from 2250N to 2750N. The axial
deflection of the spring for the load range is 6mm. assume spring index of 5. The
permissible shear stress intensity is 420N/mm2 and modulus of rigidity is 84N/mm2.
Neglect the effect of stress concentration. (Chap.5)
4. A truck has 12 number of leaves; two of which are full length leaves. The spring supports
are 1.5 mt. apart and central band is 85mm wide. The central load is to be 5.4KN with
permissible stress 280N/mm2. Determine the thickness and width of steel spring leaves.

the spring. (Chap.5)
5. Design a helical compression spring for maximum load of 1000N for a deflection of 25mm
using spring index as 5. The maximum permissible shear stress for spring wire is
420N/mm2.

thrust is carried on collar 110mm outside diameter and 55mm inside diameter and lead
screw rotates at 30rpm. Find:- i) Power required to drive the screw, ii) efficiency of the
lead screw. Assume µ= 0.15 for screw and µ= 0.12 for collar. (Chap.4)
7. A lead screw of lathe has square threads of 24mm outside diameter and 5mm pitch. In
order to drive tool carriage the screw exerts an axial thrust of 2.5KN. Find the efficiency
of screw and power required to drive the screw if it rotates at 300rpm. Neglect collar
friction and assume coefficient of thread friction as0.12. (Chap.4)
8. A wall bracket is attached to a wall by means of four bolts, two at a distance of
50 mm from the lower edge and remaining two at a distance of 450 mm from
the lower bolts. It supports a load of 50 KN at a distance of 500 mm from the
wall. Sketch the arrangements and estimate the diameter of bolts. Assume
working in stress in tension as 80 N/mm2.(chap.6)

diameter of the cylinder is 300 mm and steam pressure of 0.6 N/mm2. Assume bolts
are not initially stressed. Find the number of bolts required if working stress for bolt
material is not to exceeds 20 N/mm2. (chap.6)

bolts. The permissible tensile stress for bolt material is 70 N/mm2.(chap.6)
