    Adrian Kim Magsino
    The document is a homework problem calculating shearing stress and centrifugal force. It contains two problems: 1) It calculates the shearing stress on a 4-spline shaft under a 2500lb force to be 520.833333 lbs, using the shaft's dimensions and a shear stress formula. 2) It calculates the centrifugal force on a cast iron flywheel rotating at 1200rpm with a 2ft diameter rim weighing 30lbs to be 14,724 lbs, finding tangential speed first before applying a centrifugal force formula.

    ME-5301
    PROBLEM NO.10: A 4-spline shaft (d= 0.75D, w= 0.24D, h=0.25D) and to slide when not under
    load has a diameter of 2.5 in. Find the shearing stress if shearing force is 2500lbs. If hub length is
    2inches.

    Given: N or No. of spline – 4 D or Nominal Diameter – 2.5in


    d or root diameter - 0.75D F or shearing force – 2500bs
    w or width of spline - 0.24D l or hub length – 2inches
    h or height of spline – 0.25D

    Required: τ or shearing stress

    Diagram:
    •  
    Solution:
    Use the formula for shear stress:
    τ=
    The Area being acted upon by the Force in a shearing stress is the width multiply by the length
    of the key
    τ=
    Substitute the given values to the equation:
    τ=
    Since the width is in terms of Nominal diameter which is 2.5 in and there are 4 splines on the
    shaft.
    τ = 520.833333

    Therefore the shearing stress of a 4-spline shaft having a shearing force of 2500lbs and width and
    length of 0.6in and 2in respectively is 520.833333
    PROBLEM NO.10: A cast iron flywheel is rotated at a speed of 1200rpm and having a rim mean
    diameter of 2 feet. If the weight of the rim is 30lbs , what is the centrifugal force? Use factor
    C=41.

    •  
    Given: N or rotational speed – 1200rpm
    or rim mean diameter – 2 feet
    or weight of the rim – 30lbs
    C or coefficient of fluctuation – 41

    Required: or centrifugal force

    Diagram:
    •  
    Solution:
    Solve for the tangential speed
    v=π D N
    = π (2feet) ()
    = 125.6637061

    Using centrifugal force formula:


    =
    Substitute the given values, r is the radius , g is the gravity
    =

    = 14,724 lbs

    Therefore the centrifugal force of the flywheel by first getting the tangential speed then
    substituting it to the formula is 14,724 lbs
