1.1
INTRODUCTION.
A vector quantity requires a number and a direction to specify it completely; that is, a
vector has magnitude and direction. Examples of vectors are velocity, acceleration
and force.
Mechanics is the study

of object or bodies, as
we shall call them, when
subjected to force.
1.1
VELOCITY AND ACCELERATION

Velocity
The velocity of a body may be defined as its rate of change of displacement,
with respect to its surroundings, in a particular direction. As the velocity is
always expressed in a particular direction, it is also a vector quantity.
Acceleration
The acceleration of a body may be defined as the rate of change of its velocity. It
is said to be positive, when the change in velocity of a body increases with time,
and negative when the velocity decreases with time. The negative acceleration is
also called retardation.
In general, the term acceleration is used to denote the rate at which the velocity
is changing. It may be uniform or variable.
1.2
EQUATION FOR LINEAR, UNIFORMLY ACCELERATED MOTION

Suppose a body moving in a straight line has an initial speed u and that it undergoes
uniform acceleration a for time t considering, let the final speed be v and the
distance traveled in the time t be s. The speed time curve will be show in fig.1.1
Fig. 1.1 Uniform accelerated linear motion.

Acceleration a is uniform, its magnitude is
a = change in speed
change in time
= vuIt
a
or t = v u
or v = u + at
(1.1)
In this case, the average speed will be the speed at time tI2.
Hence average speed = 2 ( u + v)

Further, since distance travel = average speed x t then s = 1 2( u + v)t
Substituting for v from (1.1) into (1.2) gives
s=
2 ( u + u + at )I t
1 at2
Or s = u t +
2
(1.2)
Substituting for t from (1.1) into (1.2) gives

s = 1 2( u + v ) (v - u )I a
2 2
or 2as = v - u
or v
= u + 2as
Example 1.1
A workman drops a hammer from the top of scaffolding. If the speed of sound in air
is 340 mIs, how long does the workman have before shouting to another workman 60
m vertically below him if his warning is to arrive before the hammer. Neglect air
resistance.
60 = 0 + (9.81)
t = 3.50s
Solution 1.1
60
For hammer
hammertakes 3.50 s to fall 60 m. The sound takes 340 = 0.18 to travel the same
The
distance so the workman has (3.50 0.18) = 3.32 s before shouting if the sound is

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LINEAR SPEED AND ANGULAR SPEED

If a point P moves round in a circle with a of radius r with constant linear speed v
then the angular speed will be constant and
(1.3)
where t is the time to move from Q to P along the arc QP of the curve. Fig 1.2
Fig. 1.2 Circular motion

However, arc length QP is r when is measured in radians and hence linear
speed v is
V = arc QP = r

t
Using (1.3) and (1.4) leads to
V = r for circular motion.
Or linear speed = radius x angular speed.

Example 1.2
What is the peripheral speed of the tread on a tire of a motor car if the wheel spins
about the axle with an angular velocity of 6 radianl second. Diameter of tires is 0.7 m.
Solution 1.2
V= r
= 0.35 x 6
V = 2.1 mls
where r = 0.35 m and = 6 radls

WORK DONE BY A CONSTANT FORCE
Work done = Force x distance.

Unit of work is joule (J) or
Kilojoule (kJ)
When the point at which a force acts moVes, the force is said to haVe done work.
When the force is constant, the work done is defined as work done = force x distance
moVed in the direction of the force. It is a scalar qUantity.
If a constant force F moVes a body from A to B then distance moVed in the
direction of F is s cos 0 fig.1.3. The work done by a constant force is thUs:
Work done = F s cos 0
fig. 1.3 Notation for the work done
If the body moVes in the same direction as the force, where by = 0 and
0
work done is Fs. Work done is zero if direction force = 90 . If F is in Newton and
s is in meters, the work done will be measUred in joUles (J)
Example 1.4
How mUch work is done when a force of 5 KN moVes its point of application 600
mm in the direction of the force.
SolUtion. 1.4
Work done = force x distance

POWER
Power is the rate of doing work, i.e. the work done in Unit time. The SI Unit of
power is the watt; it is 1 joUle per second and is written 1 W. The British Unit of
power Use earlier was the Horse- Power, and is eqUiValent to aboUt 746 watts . If a
force of F Newton keeps its point of application moVing in the direction of the force
with Uniform speed v meters per second, the work done per second is Fv joUles, and
is the power is Fv watts.
Example 1.5
The total mass of an engine and train is 200 Mg; what is the power of the engine if it
1
can jUst keep the train moVing at a Uniform speed of 100 kmlh on the leVel, the
resistances to friction, amoUnting to
1
of the weight of the train.
200
SolUtion 1.5
Since the speed is Uniform, the pUll of the engine is eqUal to the total
resistance, i.e. 1000g N.= 1000 x 9.81 = 9810 N.

100 km1h = 1000136 m1s

The speed is
The work per second
= 1000 x 9.8 x 1000136 J
Power = 105 x 2.72 W
= 272 kW
1.7
ENERGY
The energy may be defined as the capacity to do work. It exists in many form e.g.
Mechanical, electrical, chemical, heat, light etc. BUt in applied Mechanics, we
shall deal in Mechanical Energy only. The Unit for energy is the same as those of
work i.e. example joUles.
1.7.1
CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
Energy cannot be created or destroyed bUt can be transformed from one
to another form of energy. For instance water stored in a dam possesses
potential energy which changes to kinetic energy as it flows downwards
throUgh a tUnnel to tUrn tUrbines, which in tUrn changes to electric
energy which can be Used to prodUce heat energy.
1.7.2
POTENTIAL ENERGY
The potential energy of a body may be defined as the amoUnt of work it can
do when it moVes from its actUal position to the standard position chosen.
The work done lifting a load of mass M and weight W = Mg
throUgh a height h is Wh. This is known as the potential energy of the load
referred to its original position and its Unit in that energy,
i.e. the basic Unit is the joUle (J).
Potential energy = Wh = Mgh (zero at earths surface)
Example 1.6
What is the potential energy of a 10 kg mass?
(a) 100 m aboVe the sUrface of the earth.
(b) at the bottom of a Vertical mine shaft 1000 m deep.
SolUtion 1.6
(a)
(b)
Potential energy = mgh

= 10 x 9.81 x 100 J
= 9.81 KJ.
Potential Energy = -10 x 9.81 x 1000 J
= -9.81 x 10
= -98.1 KJ.
1.7.3 KINETIC ENERGY

A body may possess energy dUe to its motion as well as dUe to its position. For
example, when a hammer is Used to driVe in a nail, work is done on the nail by
the hammer, hence it mUst haVe possessed energy. Also a rotating flywheel
possess energy dUe its motion. These are example of the form of energy
call kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy may be described as energy dUe to motion. Only linear motion
will be considered. The kinetic energy of a body may be defined as the

amoUnt of work it can do before being broUght to rest.
1.7.4
FORMULA FOR KINETICS ENERGY

Let a body of mass m moVing with a speed V be broUght to rest with a
Uniform retardation by constant force P in a distance s.
= u + 2 as

0 = v - 2 as since a is negatiVe

HoweVer P =

Work done = mav l2a

= Y mv
The kinetic energy is thUs giVen
2
by Kinetic energy = Y mv
1.7.5 STRAIN ENERGY

The work done in compressing or stretching a spring is stored as strain energy
in the spring proVided that there is no permanent deformation (oVer
stretching). The stiffness of a spring is the load per Unit extension and is
approximately constant within the working range of the spring; thUs if S is the
stiffness, the load P reqUired to prodUce an extension X is giVen by
P=SX
SUppose a load is gradUally applied to a spring so that it Varies from zero
to maximUm ValUe P and prodUce a maximUm extension X. Then
Work done = aVerage load x extension
= YPxX
= Y SX x X
2
= Y SX
since strain energy
U = Work done
ThUs U = Y P x
2
= Y SX
The Units of strain energy are same as those of work, i.e. joUles (J)
Example 1.7
A wagon of mass 12 tone traVeling at 16 kmlh strikes a pair of parallel
spring-loaded stops. If the stiffness of each spring is 600 KNlm, calcUlate
the maximUm compression in bringing the wagon to rest.
SolUtion 1.7
V = 16 kmlh = 3.6
16 m
Kinetic energy of wagon = Y Mv
= Y x 12 x 1000 x
3.6
16 2
= 118,500 J
This kinetic energy may be assUmed to be absorbed eqUally by the
two springs. Strain energy stored per spring is
Y x 118,500 = 59,250 J
ThUs X is the maximUm compression of the springs,
2
Y SX = 59,250
2
Or Y x 600 x 1,000 X = 59,250
X = 0.446 m = 446 mm
1.8 MOMENTUM AND CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM

1.8.1 MOMENTUM
The momentUm of a particle is the prodUct of the mass of the particle and its
Velocity. If m is the mass of the particle and v its Velocity the momentUm is m v.
The Unit of momentUm is eqUiValent, i.e. Ns = kg mls.
1.8.2 CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM

If two bodies collide then the sUm of the momentUm before the collision is eqUal to
the sUm of the momentUm after collision measUred in the same direction.
m1U1 + m2U2 = m1V1 + m2V2
Where
m1 = mass of the first body

m2 = mass of the second body
U1 = initial Velocity of the first body
U2 = initial Velocity of the second body
V1 = final Velocity of the first body
V2 = final Velocity of the second body
Example 1.8
A 750 kg car collided head on with a 1 tone car. If both cars are traVel at 16 kmlh at
the time of impact and after impact the second car reboUnds at 3 kmlh, find the
Velocity of the first car after collision (assUme perfect elastic collision)
SolUtion 1.8
By the conserVation of momentUm and assUming that the first car also reboUnd.
m1U1 + m2U2 = m1V1 + m2V2
+
750 x (+16) + 100 x (-16) ) = 750 x (-V1) + ( 1000 + ( +3) )

2.1 INTRODUCTION.
The moment of inertia of a body, about a given axis, is a measure of its resistance to
Angular. An acceleration and is given by the product of its mass times radius squared.
The second moment of area or

second moment of mass is also
called moment of inertia
2.1
MOMENT OF INERTIA:
Moment of inertia is the product of mass and the square of a distance. The unit which it

is measured is one kilogram meter squared (kgm ). It should also be noted that
2
m r is a scalar quantity.
The moment of inertia is also called the second moment of area of the body.

THEOREM OF PARALLEL AXES

The moment of inertia of a lamina about any axis in the plane of the lamina equals
the sum of the moments of inertia about a parallel centrically axis in the plane of
lamina together with the product of the area of the lamina and the square of the
distance between the two axes.( fig. 2.1)
Let A = Area of the plane figure.
Ix = moment of inertia of the area A about an axis XX in the plane of the
area passing through G, the C.G ( Centre of Gravity) of the area.
Iy = moment of inertia of the area A about an axis YY in the plane of the area
parallel to XX.
r = distance between XX and YY.
Then
Iy = Ix + Ar

THEOREM OF PERPENDICULAR AXES

If the moments of inertia of lamina about two perpendicular axes in its plane which
meet at O are A and B the moment of inertia about an axis through O perpendicular
to the plane of the lamina is A + B.
Let OX, OY (figure 2.4) be the two perpendicular axes n the plane of the
lamina, and Oz an axis perpendicular to the lamina.
If m is the mass of a particle of the lamina at P, where as OP = r, the moment of
2
inertia of the lamina about Oz is mr .

TORQUE
Torque is the turning moment of tangential applied force (F) acting at distance (r)
from the axis rotation. The unit of torque is the Newton meter (Nm)

In the fig.2.6 the moment of F about the point 0 is Moment of a force = F d A
couple is a pair of equal and parallel but unlike forces as shown in fig 2.7.
F
Fig.2.7 Moment of a couple
It can easily be proved that the moment of a couple about any point in its plane is the
product of one force and perpendicular distance between them, that is
Moment of couple = F p
Examples of a couple include turning off a tap with finger and thumb and winding up a
clock with a key. The moment of a force or couple may be measured in Newton meter
(Nm). In engineering, the moment of a force or couple is called a torque.
Example 2.4

then the angular acceleration a of P is the rate of change of its angular
velocity, that is

ANGULAR MOMENTUM
Momentum = mass x
velocity. = m x v
Angular momentum of a solid is given as the product of the moment of inertia of the
solid about axis of rotation and angular velocity.
When a body has motion of rotation, the momentum of the body is the product of
the moment of inertia of the body and its angular velocity.
momentum of rotating body = I
( v = r)
and momentum of a body having a motion of translation = m v
2
= (mr )
M = I
2.7
(I = mr )
ANGULAR IMPULSE
This is the change in momentum produced by the action of a force applied on a
body within an infinitely short interval of time. Donating impulse by I, we have
Impulse = Force x Time
I =Fxt
(2.1)
Let a be the acceleration generated by the force, then by Newtons second law, we
have F = ma
Equation (2.1) becomes I = mat = m(v u) or Ft = m(v u) ( v = u + at ) Hence,
when a force is constant, its impulse can be measured by the change in momentum
produced by it The unit of impulse is the same as that of momentum,
i.e. kg sec (kgs).
2.8
WORK DONE BY A TORQUE

Let a force F turns a light rod OA with length r through an angle to OB as shown
in fig. 2.9.
Fig.2.9 Work done by a torque
The torque TQ exerted about O is force times perpendicular distance from O or T Q = Fr
Now work done by F is F times distance moved. Hence Work Done = Fs

But s is the arc of a circle radius r. Hence
S = r
Where must be measured in
radians. Thus work done = Fr
Or work done = TQ
The work done by constant torque T Q is thus the product of the torque and the
angle turned through in radians. The work done will be in joules if TQ is in Nm.
Example 2.6
The force exerted on the end of a spanner 300 mm long used to tighten a nut is
constant 100 N. Find the torque exerted on the nut and the work done when the
nut turns through 300.
Solution 2.6
Torque TQ = Pr

Work Done = TQ

Example 2.7
An electric motor is rated 400 W. If its efficiency is 80 %, find the maximum torque
which it can exert when running at 2850 revlmin.
Solution 2.7
Power = 2N TQ
N = 2850l60 = 47.5 revls
Power = 400 x 0.8 = 320 W
Torque TQ = 320l2 x 47.5

the wheel about its axis.
Solution 2.8
Given, length of string

Force
P = 10 N
Speed of wheel, = 3 revisec = 2 x 3 = 6 radisec
Let
I = moment of inertia of the wheel about it axis.

3.1 INTRODUCTION
We study the effect of combining a hoist drum of moment of inertia with a
hanging load of mass M and Weight W = Mg.
In this topic we are

concerned in dynamics of
rotation.
3.1 INERTIA COUPLE

Comparing the formulae P = Ma and T = I , it is seen that moment of inertia
I plays the same part in a change of angular motion as mass M does in
change of linear motion. By analogy with the idea of inertia force we may
regard the torque T as being balanced by inertia couple, I , which sense is
opposite to that of the angular acceleration , (Fig. 3.1). The problem is then
in effect reduced to a static one.
The reality of the effect of an inertia couple will be appreciated by anyone
who has tried to accelerate a bicycle wheel rapidly by hand. Although the
weight may carried wholly by the bearings an effort is required to set the
wheel spinning. An inertia couple is, of course, reactive.
Fig. 3.1
Example 3.1
A 30 kg flywheel, revolving at 5.24 radls has a radius of gyration of one
meter. Calculate the torque which must be applied to bring the flywheel to
rest in 10 seconds.
Solution 3.1

I = 30kgm2

Torque,
T = I

T = 15.72Nm
3.2 ACCELERATED SHAFT

Consider a shaft (Fig. 3.2) carrying a rotor having a moment of inertia about
the shaft axis.
Fig. 3.2
If the bearing friction is equivalent to a couple Tf .
Then, in order to accelerate the shaft and rotor the driving torque T must
balance both the inertia couple I and the friction couple Tf .
Thus,
T = I + T f
Example 3.2
2
A flywheel has a moment of inertia of 10 kg.m . Calculate the angular

acceleration of the wheel due to a torque of 8 Nm if the bearing friction
is equivalent to a couple of 3 Nm.
Solution 3.2:
Given:
I = 10 kgm
T = 8 Nm
T = I + T f
I = T T f
I = 8 3 Nm
I = 5 Nm
= 10 radls2
Tf = I = 3 Nm
3.3 SHAFT BEING BROUGHT TO REST

If the shaft is being brought to rest by a braking torque T the friction couple
Tf assist the braking action so that T and Tf together must balance the inertia
couple I ; is now a retardation its sense being opposite to that of the
motion (Fig.3.3).
Fig. 3.3
Thus,
T + T f = I
If there is no braking torque, the friction couple alone brings the shaft to rest.
Then,
T f = I
Note, in both cases, that
(a) the friction couple T f opposes the motion.
(b) the inertia couple I opposes the change of motion.
Example 3.3
A flywheel together with its shaft has a total mass of 300 kg and its radius of
gyration is 900 mm. If the effect of bearing friction is equivalent to a couple
of 70 Nm, calculate the braking torque required to bring the flywheel to rest
from a speed of12 revis in 8 s.
Solution 3.3
Given:
Thus,
N = l2 rev/s = l2 x 2 = 75.4 rad/s

THE HOIST
Four cases will be considered: the load is rising or falling, being accelerated or
brought to rest. In every case two equations can be written down:
(a) the equation for the balance of couples at the hoist drum
(b) the equation for the balance of forces at the load.
In every case we recall that the friction couple at the bearing or rope will oppose
the rotation and the inertia couple will oppose the change of rotation.
For acceleration, a is upwards, hence the inertia force is downwards. If angular
acceleration, is anticlockwise, the inertia couple is clockwise. If rotation of the
drum is anticlockwise the friction couple acts clockwise.
3.4 LOAD RAISED AND WITH ACCELERATING UPWARD

For rotation of the hoist drum the driving torque T must balance the friction
couple Tf, , the inertia couple I and the torque Pr due to the tension P in the
rope at the drum.
Fig. 3.4
Thus,
Angular Motion:
T = I + Pr + Tf
For Linear motion of the load, the tension P in the rope at the load must
balance both the dead weight and the inertia force Ma.
Thus,
Linear Motion:
P = Mg + Ma
Example 3.4
2
A hoist drum has a moment of inertia of 85 kgm and is used to raised a lift
2
of mass 1 tonne with an upward acceleration of 1.5 mis . The drum diameter
is 1 m.
Determine:
(a) the torque required at the drum
(b) the power required after accelerating for 3 seconds from rest.
Solution 3.4
(a)
The torque required at the hoist drum is made up of three parts.
1.
2.
3.
torque I required to accelerate the drum

torque Wr required to hold the dead weight of the lift.
torque Mar required to accelerate the lift.

= r = 0.5
W = Mg
= 1000 x 9.8
= 98000 N
.5
= 3rad i s 2
I = 85 kgm
Thus,
Total torque = I + Wr + Mar
= (85 x 3) + (9800 x 0.5) + (1000 x 1.5 x 0.5)
= 5905 Nm
(b) After 3 seconds, the lift speed.
v

= 1.5 x 3
= 4.5 mis
(This is the speed of the drum circumference)
Therefore angular velocity of the drum,
= r = 0.5
4.5
= 9rad i s
Power required = torque x angular velocity

= T
= 5905 X 9
=53.15 Kw
This the power required at the instant after 3 seconds.
3.5 LOAD FALLING AND ACCELERATING DOWNWARDS (NO

DRIVING TORQUE ACTING)
The load is allowed to fall freely, resisted only by friction and inertia force
and couples. The rotation of the hoist drum, the accelerating torque Pr due to
rope tension must balance both the friction couple Tf and the inertia couple
I.
Fig. 3.5
Thus,
Angular Motion:
Pr = Tf + I
For linear motion of the load the accelerating force due to the weight must
balance the upward tension P in the rope and the inertia force Ma.
Thus,
Linear Motion:
P = Mg - Ma
Example 3.5
A hoist drum has a mass of 360 kg and a radius of gyration of 600 mm. The
drum diameter is 750 mm. A mass of 1 tonne hangs from a light cable
wrapped round the drum and is allowed to fall freely. If friction couple at the
bearings is 2.7 k Nm. Calculate the runaway speed of the load after falling
for 2 seconds from rest.
Solution 3.5
Given:
Md = 360 kg
k = 600 mm = 0.6 m
Dd = 750 mm = 0.75 m
Rd = 0.375 m
M = 1 tonne = 1000 kg

P = 1000(9.81 - r) = 9810 - 75
Angular Motion:
Pr = Tf + I = 2700 + 129.6
P = 2700 + 129.6
0.375
= 3.62 radis
Then,
1 = 0 + t = 0 + 3.62 (2)
= 7.24 radis
v
= r 1
= (0.375) 3.62
= 2.71 mis
a = r
3.6 LOAD FALLING AND BEING BROUGHT TO REST

We now consider the braking of the hoist drum as the load falls. The
accelerations are therefore reversed as compared with the previous case. For
rotation of the drum the braking torque T is assisted by the friction couple to
balance the accelerating torque Pr due to the rope tension and the inertia
couple I.
Fig. 3.6
Thus,
Angular Motion:
T + Tf = Pr + I
Linear Motion:
P = Mg + Ma
Example 3.6
The maximum allowable pull in a hoist cable is 200 kN. Calculate maximum
2
load in tones which can be brought to rest with a retardation of 5 mis . The
2
hoist drum has a moment of inertia of 840 kgm and a diameter of 2.4 m.
What is the corresponding braking torque on the drum?
Solution 3.6
3
a = - 5 mis
Dd = 2.4 m
Pmax = 200 x 10 Nm
Given:
I = 840 kgm
rd = 1.2 m
a = r
= r = 1 .2 = 4.16 radis
Linear Motion:
P = Mg + Ma

200 x 10 = M (g + a)
= M (9.81 + 5)
200x10
M=
kg
14.81
M = 13.5 tonne
Angular Motion:
T + Tf = Pr + I
3
T = Pr + I - Tf = 200 x 10 (1.2) + 840 (4.16) Tf

There is no braking torque, Tf = I
3
T = 200 x 10 (1.2) + 3494.4 3494.4
T = 240 k Nm
3.7 LOAD RISING: COMING TO REST UNDER FRICTION ONLY

Since there is no braking torque applied, the drum is retarded by the torque Pr
due to the rope tension and the friction couple Tf . These two couples must
balance the inertia couple of the drum.
Fig. 3.7
Thus,
Angular Motion:
I = Tf + Pr
Linear Motion:
P + Ma = Mg
Example 3.7
In an experiment, a hoist drum has a diameter is 500 mm. It is used to raised
load 50 kg and coming to rest under friction. The upward acceleration is 3.0
2
mis . The friction couple is 0.35 Nm. Find the moment of inertia of the
drum.
Solution 3.7
a = r
For the linear motion,
a
= r
3
= 0.25
= 12 radis
P + Ma = Mg
P = Mg Ma
P = M (g - a)
P = 50 (9.81 3)
P = 340.5 N
For the angular motion,
I = Tf + Pr
I = 0.35 + 340.5 (0.25)
I = 0.35 + 85.12
I = 85.47
I = 85.47
12
2
I = 7.12 kgm
NOTE:
Students are required to grasp firmly the following rules:

1.
2.
3.
the friction couple opposes the rotation

the inertia couple opposes the change of rotation
the inertia force opposes the change of linear motion.
It may remarked also that in every case the direction of the rope tension P
and the load weight W is unaltered, although their effect may be to accelerate
or to retard the load.

at the hoist drum. What is the power required when the load has reached a velocity
of 6 mis? What is the power required at a uniform velocity of 6 mis?.

3.8 LOAD BALANCING SYSTEM

We shall now consider some simple cases of the motion of two masses
connected by a light inextensible string. We note that a string connecting two
masses in motion is in a state of tension and that the string exerts forces on
the masses equal to the tensions at its ends.
If the string is light (that is, if its weight is neglected) the tension is the same
throughout its length. On the other hand, if the string is heavy the tension will
in general vary from point to point, depending upon the weight per unit
length. If the string is extensible the tension will vary with the extension.
Also, if the string passes round a pulley the tension is only the same on the
two sides if the pulley is smooth and the string is light. Otherwise the tension
in the string where it leaves the pulley depends upon the coefficient of
friction and the length of string in contact. In such an ideal case the tension
throughout the string will be constant.
Example 3.8
A load of mass 230kg is lifted by means of a rope which is wound several
times round a drum and which then supports a balance mass of 140 kg. As
the load rises the balance mass falls. The drum has a diameter of 1.2 m and a
radius of gyration of 530 mm and its mass is 70 kg. The frictional resistance
to the movement of the load is 110 N, and that to the movement of the
balance mass 90 N. The frictional torque on the drum shaft is 80 Nm.
Find the torque required on the drum, and also the power required at an
instant when the load has an upward velocity of 2.5 mis and an upward
2.
acceleration of 1.2 mis
