PART 1 -MECHANIZATION
1. A water stream had the following data:
Average width = 12ft
Average depth =2ft
Velocity per minute = 15ft
Head = 4ft
What is the theoretical power available from the stream??
a. 2.72 b. 1.41 c. 207.31 d. 414.6

2. A dynamometer test shows that an engine delivers an average output of 35hp at a

speed of 1650rpm. What torque is exerted in ft-lb??? ANS REFER TO RECORD BOOK.
a. 111.5 b. 130.6 c. 0.0034 d. 95
3. A tractor operating at 3.5mph develops a drawbar pull of 3000 pounds. Estimate the
required drawbar horsepower for the tractor.
ANS REFER TO RECORD BOOK.

4. A tractor is traveling 8km/h while pulling a plow that exerts 20kN (4500lb) of pull on the
drawbar. Calculate the linear drawbar power.
ANS REFER TO RECORD BOOK.

5. Determine the tractor power required to work the soil using four 14-inch moldboardb
plow bottoms at a depth of 10 inches and 6kph. Field efficiency= 75%. Soil specific draft
= 8lb/inch2. Increase in draft due to speed =138%. ANS REFER TO RECORD BOOK

6. Find the drawbar power for a tractor pulling 1330kg loaded wagon up a 16% slope at a
10km/hr if the coefficient of rolling resistance. ANS REFER TO RECORD BOOK
