No. Domain
1. CO1 Knowledge A four link mechanism is as shown in figure 2. Determine the shaft torque 10
Comprehension T2 on the input link AB for static equilibrium of the mechanism.
AB=500mm, BC=660mm, CD=560mm and AD=1000mm. F2=80N, F3=144N &
F4=60N.
OR
1. CO1 Knowledge A punching machine punches 20mm diameter hole on a 13mm thick steel 10
Comprehension plate. The ultimate shear stress of the steel material is 310MPa. The press
give 30 punching operations per minute. The speed ratio of the driving
shaft to the crankshaft operating the punch is 5:1. The actual punching
take place 1/6of the interval between punches. Determine i) Power of the
motor required to drive the press without flywheel ii) Power of the motor
required to drive the press with a flywheel, 8m/sec with a permissible
speed drop of 15%.

2. CO1 Knowledge Known forces P and S are applied to links 4 and 3 respectively of a four bar 10
Comprehension mechanism shown in figure 1. What is the couple that must be applied to
the link 2 for equilibrium? What is the resultant force exacted on the
frame. Length AD=120mm, AB=60mm, BC=80mm, CD=80mm, CE=20mm &
CF=40mm.
OR
2. CO1 Knowledge Draw a typical moment diagram for a single cylinder double acting 10
Comprehension horizontal steam engine and explain its salient features.

3. CO1 Knowledge Determine the various forces and couple T2 shown in figure 3. AB= 300mm, 10
Comprehension BC=600mm, BD=200mm, AE=200mm
