Frictional Forces & Applied Forces
• Whenever an object moves
against another object, it feels
frictional forces.
• These forces act in the
opposite direction to the
movement.
• Friction makes it harder for
things to move.
• The pushing or pulling force
we were applying on an object
is called as Applied Forces.
How Many Types Of Friction?

Helpful Frictional Forces &
Unhelpful Frictional Forces
• Friction can be useful:
• Friction between tires and the road stop cars from skidding.
• Friction between the brakes and wheel help bikes and cars slow
down.
• Friction can also be unhelpful:
• If you don't lubricate your bike regularly with oil, the friction in
the chain and axles increases. Your bike will be noisy and
difficult to pedal.
• When there is a lot of friction between moving parts, energy is
lost to the surroundings as heat.
Air Resistance
• Air resistance is caused by
the frictional forces of the
air against the vehicle.
• The faster the vehicle
moves, the bigger the air
resistance becomes.
Normal Force
• Curvilinear
• Circular
Rotational And Oscillatory
• Rotational motion is
an object moves
around an axis
passing through its
body.
• Oscillatory motion is
something that
moves back and
forth repeatedly.
DOF(Degrees of freedom)
• DOF is number of
independent motions that
are allowed to the body.
• In case of a mechanism
number of possible
independent relative
motions between the
pieces of the mechanism.
• Mostly used in robotics.
How many degrees of freedoms ?
• There are six degrees of a freedom
for an object in space.
DOF of a ship
•The
width of
a pin
How large is a centimeter?
The width
of the top
of your
finger
How large is a meter?
About the
width 1 meter
of one &
1/2 doors
How large is a milliliter?
About a
drop of
liquid
Measurements Of Length And Weight
• Units of Length
• 10 millimeters = 1 centimeter
• 10 centimeters = 1 decimeter
• 10 decimeters = 1 meter
• 1000 meters = 1 kilometer
• Units of Weight
• 10 milligrams = 1 centigram
• 10 centigrams = 1 decigram
• 10 decigrams = 1 gram
• 1000 grams = 1 kilogram
• 1000 kilograms = 1 metric ton
Units
• Units are standards for measurement
of physical quantities that need clear
definitions to be useful.
• There are mainly two types of units
• Basic Units
• Derived Units
Basic Units
• The International System of Units (SI) defines
seven units of measure as a basic set from
which all other SI units are derived. The SI
base units and their physical quantities are:
Derived Units
Derived Mechanical Units
Features of Measured Quantities
1. Precision
2. Accuracy
Absolute Error
% AE = (True value-Avg Value) X
100
True Value
Measuring Instruments
• A measuring instrument is
a device for measuring a
physical quantity.
• In the physical sciences,
quality assurance, and
engineering, measurement
is the activity of obtaining
and comparing physical
quantities of real-world
objects and events.
Rulers
• Rulers
– Simple tools to measure straight-line
distances where tolerances are not a major
factor
– Can be made of metal, plastic, or wood
– Typical rulers are 6 inches or 12 inches
– Tolerance: is the permissible limit or limits
of variation.
– In mechanical engineering the space
between a bolt and a nut or a hole Is the
Tolerance
Tolerance
Calipers
• Feeler Gauges
• Valve lash
• Measure spark plug gap
• Head flatness
• Thrust distance in Crankshaft
• Ignition point gap (Old Vehicles)
Feeler gages are principally used in determining
clearances between various parts of machinery.
Probably the most common use is determining valve
clearance. Various blades are inserted between the
tappet and the push rod until a blade of the feeler gage
is found that will just slide between the two surfaces
without too much friction or sticking. The thickness of the
blade then determines the clearance. Or, a particular
feeler of proper thickness may be selected and the
tappet adjusted until the feeler will just slide between the
tappet and push rod with out catching.

Dial Indicators
• Dial Calipers
– For inside, outside, and
depth measurements
– Manual scales or digital
– can measure in 0.001
inch increments
– Metric can measure in 2-
millimeter increments
Dial Indicator
• Pressure Gauges
– Measures amount of pressure applied to a
closed, sealed system
– Fitted into pressure line with appropriate
fittings
– A manometer is an instrument that uses a
column of liquid to measure pressure,
although the term is currently often used to
mean any pressure measuring instrument.

Pressure and Vacuum
Measurements
• Vacuum Gauges
– Mechanical gauge measures difference
between atmospheric pressure and current
state of system
– A vacuum gauge is used to measure the
pressure in a vacuum.
– it is possible to measure system pressure
continuously from 10 mbar down to
10−11 mbar.
