(5) A 2½-in square thread steel screw is used in a common jack screw. There are 214TPI. The body of the jack is made of cast iron. The coefficient of friction on the threads is 0.15. The thrust collar at the top has an inside diameter of 1/2-in & the outside diameter of 3.0in. The coefficient for the collar is 0.25. The load to be lifted by the jack screw is 2 tons. Determine: (a) the efficiency of the screw only; (b) the efficiency of the screw & the thrust collar; (c) the pull necessary @ the end of a 2.0ft lever to operate this screw jack.

Question
(5) A 212-in square thread steel screw is used in a common jack screw. There are 214TPI. The body of
the jack is made of cast iron. The coefficient of friction on the threads is 0.15. The thrust collar at the
top has an inside diameter of 12-in & the outside diameter of 3.0in. The coefficient for the collar is
0.25. The load to be lifted by the jack screw is 2 tons. Determine:
(a) the efficiency of the screw only;
(b) the efficiency of the screw & the thrust collar;
(c) the pull necessary @ the end of a 2.0ft lever to operate this screw jack.
