Calculate pressure at the mid-plane of an annular cylinder of iron powder pressed using double-action press. The punch pressure (i. e., applied pressure) is 100 MPa when the height of the pressed sample is 10 cm. The coefficient of friction is 0.1, radial-to-axial pressure ratio is 0.4, and the wall thickness of the annular compact is 2 cm.

An engine, weighing 3000 n, is supported on a pedestal mount. it has been observed that the engine induces vibration into the surrounding area through its pedestal at the maximum operating speed. determine the stiffness of the dynamic vibration absorber spring in (n/m) that will reduce the vibration when mounted on the pedestal. the magnitude of the exciting force is 250 n, and the amplitude of motion of the auxiliary mass is to be limited to 2 mm note: in this question type-in right numbers, no decimals, no fractions, no unit. approximate to right number if needed
