In a pin jointed four bar mechanism ABCD, the lengths of various links are as
follows: AB=25 mm; BC=87.5mm; CD=50mm and AD=80mm. The link AD is
fixed and the angle BAD=135". If the velocity of B is 1.8 m/s in the clock wise
direction, find

An epicyclic gear consists of a pinion (25 teeth), a sun wheel (50 teeth)
and annulus (100 internal teeth) which is concentric with the sun wheel.
The pinion mates with the sun wheel and also the annulus. Thd planet
(pinion) gear is carried on the arm, which rotates about the centre of
annular gear. If the annulus is fixed and arm rotates at 20 rpm, then find

diameter which is keyed to the shaft. The band brake provides a braking
torque of 225 N-m. One end of the band is attached to a fulcrum pin of
the level and the other end to a pin 100 mm from the fulcrum. If the
operating force is applied .at 500 mm from the fulcrum and the
co-efficient of friction is 0.25, find the operating force when the drum
