‘The braking mechanism consists of two pinned arms and a
square-threaded screw with left and righthand threads. Thus jg
when turned, the serew draws the two arms together. Ifthe
Jead of the serew is 4mm, the mean diameter 12 mm, and
the coefficient of static friction is 4, = 0.35, determine the
tension in the screw when a torque of 5 N-m is applied to
tighten the screw. If the coefficient of static friction between
the brake pads A and and the circular shaft is y, = 0.5,
determine the maximum torque M the brake can resist.
