3. Part (Tool Block) - Step 1
Build this part in SOLIDWORKS.
Unit system: MMGS (millimeter, gram, second)
Decimal places: 2
Part origin: Arbitrary
All holes through all unless shown otherwise.
Material: AISI 1020 Steel
Density = 0.0079 g/mm^3
A = 81.00
B = 57.00
C = 43.00
What is the overall mass of the part (grams)?
Hint: If you don't find an option within 1% of your answer please re-check your solid
model.
a) 1028.33
b) 118.93
c) 577.64
d) 939.54
REMINDER: Save your part in a different file after each question in case it must be
reviewed.

4. Part (Tool Block) - Step 2
Modify the part in SOLIDWORKS.
Unit system: MMGS (millimeter, gram, second)
Decimal places: 2
Part origin: Arbitrary
All holes through all unless shown otherwise.
Material: AISI 1020 Steel
Density = 0.0079 g/mm^3
Use the part created in the previous question and modify it by changing the following
parameters:
A = 84.00
B = 59.00
C = 45.00
Note: Assume all other dimensions are the same as in the previous question.
What is the overall mass of the part (grams)?

5. Part (Tool Block) - Step 3
Modify the part in SOLIDWORKS.
Unit system: MMGS (millimeter, gram, second)
Decimal places: 2
Part origin: Arbitrary
All holes through all unless shown otherwise.
Material: AISI 1020 Steel
Density = 0.0079 g/mm^3
Use the part created in the previous question and modify it by removing material and
also by changing the following parameters:
A = 86.00
B = 58.00
C = 44.00
What is the overall mass of the part (grams)?
23
Part Modeling (continued)
These images are to be used to answer Question #6.

6. Part (Tool Block) - Step 4
Modify this part in SOLIDWORKS.
Unit system: MMGS (millimeter, gram, second)
Decimal places: 2
Part origin: Arbitrary
All holes through all unless shown otherwise.
Material: AISI 1020 Steel
Density = 0.0079 g/mm^3
Use the part created in the previous question and modify it by adding a pocket.
Note 1: Only one pocket on one side is to be added. This modified part is not
symmetrical.
Note 2: Assume all unspecified dimensions are the same as in the previous question
#5.
What is the overall mass of the part (grams)?
25
Part 3: Assembly Modeling
This image is to be used to answer Questions #7 8.
26
7. Build this assembly in SOLIDWORKS (Chain Link Assembly)
Download the attached zip file and open it.
Save the contained parts and open those parts in SOLIDWORKS. (Note: If
SOLIDWORKS prompts "Do you want to proceed with feature recognition?"
please click "No".)
IMPORTANT: Create the Assembly with respect to the Origin as shown in
isometric view. (This is important for calculating the proper Center of Mass)
Create the assembly using the following conditions:
1. Pins are mated concentric to chain link holes (no clearance).
2. Pin end faces are coincident to chain link side faces.
Unit system: MMGS (millimeter, gram, second)
Decimal places: 2
Assembly origin: As shown in image
A = 25 degrees
B = 125 degrees
C = 130 degrees
What is the center of mass of the assembly (millimeters)?
Hint: If you don't find an option within 1% of your answer please re-check your
assembly.
a) X = 348.66, Y = -88.48, Z = -91.40
b) X = 308.53, Y = -109.89, Z = -61.40
c) X = 298.66, Y = -17.48, Z = -89.22
d) X = 448.66, Y = -208.48, Z = -34.64
27
8. Modify the assembly in SOLIDWORKS. (Chain Link Assembly)
Unit system: MMGS (millimeter, gram, second)
Decimal places: 2
Assembly origin: Arbitrary
Using the same assembly created in the previous question modify the following
parameters:
A = 30 degrees
B = 115 degrees
C = 135 degrees
What is the center of mass of the assembly (millimeters)?
