In shaft design, this of the following has the least influence on the shaft diameter to be determined (a) shaft deflection (b) bearing type (c) factor of safety (d) rotational speed of the shaft

Ahelical coil spring has a mean diameter of 50 mm, a wire diameter of 5.5 mm and is wound with a pitch of 10 mm. the spring steel has an ultimate strength of 1250 mpa. find the force needed to compress the spring solid and the wire stress in this condition. state whether the spring will return to its initial length.

Plot schematically the tensile stress versus strain curves for a typical thermoplastic material at a temperature below its glass transition temperature (tg and at a temperature above its tg, respectively. do the same for a typical thermosetting material. list in a table any differences or similarities between the two materials at t> tg and t < tg, respectively, and relate them to the structures of the two types of polymers

Two slings are used to lift a girder of length l and uniform weight per unit length. what is the best position for the slings if the bending moment due to the weight of the girder is to be kept to a minimum?
