Machine Design Problems - DAY 1MACHINE ELEMENTS

This document contains 5 machine design problems related to mechanical elements and stresses. The problems involve calculating distances between parallel shafts, diameters of cylinders rolling in opposite directions, diameters of steel tie rods and taper pins, number of holes that can be punched in steel plates, average stresses in shafts, and required section modulus for cantilevered I-beams. Solutions require using given information about speeds, forces, dimensions, material properties, and factors of safety.

Machine Design Problems – DAY 1MACHINE ELEMENTS1. PROBLEM (ME Bd. Apr.

97) Two
parallel shafts connected by pure rolling turn in the same directionhaving a speed ratio of 2.75. What is the distance
of the shafts if the smaller cylinder is 22 cm in diameter?2. Two cylinders rolling in opposite direction has a speed
ratio of 3. If center distance is 40 in, find the diameterof smaller cylinder.STRESSES1. PROBLEM (ME Bd. Apr.
96) A steel tie rod on bridge must be made withstand a pull of 5000 lbs. Find the diameter of the rod assuming a
factor of safety of 5 and ultimate stress of 64,000 psi.2. PROBLEM (ME Bd. Oct. 97) Determine the minimum mean
diameter of a taper pin for use to fix a lever to a shaft, if it is transmit a maximum torque of 700 in-lbs. The shaft
diameter is 2 inches and the material allowable stresses is 15,000 psi. Use factor of safety of 2.3. PROBLEM (ME
Bd. Apr. 97) How many 5/16 inch holes can be punch in one motion in a steel plate made of SAE 1010 steel, 7/16
inch thick using a force of 55 tons. The ultimate strength for shear is 50 ksi and use 2 factor of safety.4. PROBLEM
(ME Bd. Apr. 97) The shaft whose torque varies from 2000 to 6000 in-lbs has 1 1/2 inches in diameter and 60,000
psi yield strength. Compute for the shaft mean average stress.5. In a 2.0 m cantilevered I-beam, a 2 Mton weight
is applied at free end. If the allowable stress in beam is 110 Mpa, determine the section modulus.
