Transcribed Image Text:Clamps like the one shown are commonly used in
woodworking applications. This clamp has the dimensions
given in the table below the figure, and its jaws are t =56
mm thick (in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the
picture).
a.) The screws of the clamp are adjusted so that there is a
uniform pressure of P =
= 150 kPa being applied to the
workpieces by the jaws. Determine the force carried in each
screw. Hint: the uniform pressure can be modeled in 2-D as a
uniform distributed load with intensity w = Pt (units of
N/m) acting over the length of contact between the jaw and
the workpiece.
b.) Determine the minimum vertical force (parallel to the
jaws) required to pull either one of the workpieces out of the
clamp jaws. Use a coefficient of static friction between all
contacting surfaces of µs = 0.56 and the same clamping
pressure given for part (a).

- An inflatable structure used by a traveling circus has the shape of a half-circular cylinder with closed ends (see figure). The fabric and plastic structure is inflated by a small blower and has a radius of 40 ft when fully inflated. A longitudinal scam runs the entire length of the "ridge" of the structure. If the longitudinal scam along the ridge tears open when it is subjected to a tensile load of 540 pounds per inch of seam, what is the factor of safety n against tearing when the internal pressure is 0,5 psi and the structure is fully inflated?arrow_forward56 Clamps like the one shown are commonly used in woodworking applications.
