Ques.1 In the mechanism shown in figure given below, motor drives the winch drum through
a reduction gear with a gear tooth ratio(a) 0.1. the friction torque at winch shaft is 15
N-m and motor shaft is 10 N-m. Motor speed is 1500 rpm. Calculate the equivalent
moment of inertia of the drive referred to motor shaft and motor torque if gear have
an efficiency of 90%.

Ques.2 A motor drives two loads. One has rotational motion. It is coupled to motor through a
reduction gear with 0.1 and efficiency of 90%. The load has a moment of inertia of 10
kg-m2 and a torque of 10 N-m. Other load has translational motion and consists of
1000 Kg weight to be lifted up at a uniform speed of 1.5 m/s. Coupling between this
load and the motor has an efficiency of 85%. Motor has inertia of 0.2 kg-m2 and runs
at a constant speed of 1420 rpm.
Determine equivalent inertia referred to motor shaft and power developed by motor.

Instructions:
1. Students need to submit the assignments in a dedicated copy assigned for assignment
work only. They can take it back for further assignments in future. At the end of course
term students will be asked to submit it along with all assignments during course tenure.
2. Submit it with in time frame.
