A four-bar mechanism is working on horizontal plane. The second link length is 0,4 m and makes an angle of 0=25 degrees with the vertical line as shown in figure. Find the torque (T) in Nm must be applied to link 2 to keep the mechanism in equilibrium against a F=132 N force acting at E on the link 3 downward (along negative y- axis) direction. Allowable tolerance for your answer of this question is relatively 3 percent. So, work precisely and clear while solving it. Do not enter any UNIT. (If the direction of the torque is CCW, just enter the value of it without any sign. If it has CW direction, enter "-" sign "negative sign" before the value such as "- 12,12".)

A small lab scale has a rigid L-shaped frame ABC consisting of a horizontal aim AB (length b = 30 cm) and a vertical arm BC (length c = 20 cm) pivoted at point B. The pivot is attached to the outer frame BCD that stands on a laboratory bench. The position of the pointer at C is controlled by two parallel springs, each having a spring constant k = 3650 N/m. that are attached to a threaded rod. The pitch of the threads is p = 1.5 mm. If the weight is 65 N. how many revolutions of the nut are required to bring the pointer back to the mark?

The device shown in the figure consists of a prismatic rigid pointer ABC supported by a uniform translational spring of stiffness k = 950 N/m. The spring is positioned a distance P = 165 nun from the pinned end A of the pointer. The device is adjusted so that, when there is no load P, the pointer reads zero on the angular scale. (a) If the load P = 11 N, al what distance .v should the load be placed so that the pointer will read ?? = 2.5° on the scale (see figure part a)?
