For a 1-in.- nominal-diameter bolt, the required minimum bolt tension is 51 kips. Assuming the coefficient of friction to be 0.30, determine the required couple that should be applied to the bolt and nut. The mean diameter of the thread is 0.94 in., and the lead is 0.125 in. Neglect friction between the nut and washer, and assume the bolt to be square-threaded. You must show a free body diagram of your block and incline analysis of the bolt and nut, and clearly indicate your force triangle, if any.arrow_forward
- A block is resting on a wooden plank. There is a hinge on one end of the plank which allows the other end to be lifted to create an angle, θ, with respect to the horizontal as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plank is μs. If a student measures that the block begins to move at an angle of θ = 20.5°, what is the numerical value of the coefficient of static friction, μs?arrow_forwardParvinbhaiarrow_forwardNeed only a handwritten solution only (not a typed one).arrow_forward
