The block brake shown below is set by a spring that produces a force S on each arm equal to 682 lb. The wheel diameter is 14 in., and the angle of contact for each block is 110°. Using 0.40 as a value of the coefficient of friction between the drum and lining, determine the maximum torque in foot-pounds that the brake is capable of absorbing. S + S 1/2" 1/2"
