The two blocks under the double wedge are brought together using a left and right square-threaded screw. if the mean diameter is 20 mm, the lead is 5 mm, and the screw coefficient of static friction, mu s, is 0.4, determine the torque needed to draw the blocks together. the coefficient of static friction between each block and its surfaces of contact is mu s 0.4 also. assume the blocks are of negligible weight.

What are the two (02) benefits, which may result from a successful implementation of preventive maintenance (pm) program in an organization? (clo3)a)- lean manufacturing b)-overlapping responsibilities c)-the planner is not qualified d)-accurate contractor information e)-reduction in equipment redundancies f)-accurate stores information

Air is compressed isentropically from an initial state of 300 k and 101 kpa to a final temperature of 1000 k. determine the final pressure using the following approaches: (a) approximate analysis (using properties at the average temperature) (b) exact analysis

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
