EXPERIMENT NO.1 DATE:

GENERAL CO-PLANAR FORCE SYSTEM

AIM: To verify the conditions of equilibrium for a general coplanar force system.

APPARATUS: wooden board, pulleys with clamps, a sheet of paper, loads with hooks at one end and weights.

THEORY: The conditions of equilibrium

ΣFx = 0, ΣFy = 0 & ΣM=0.

PROCEDURE: Pin a sheet of drawing paper on the board. Tie four threads/cords on the corners of a wooden plank and pass the cords over the pulleys, clamped in different positions on the board and suspend weights at the end of the cords. Adjust the weights until equilibrium of the system is established. Mark the lines of action of the forces on the paper and note down their magnitudes. Remove the paper. Draw the lines of actions of all the forces and verify

ΣFx = 0 , ΣFy = 0

Take any point on the paper. Draw perpendiculars from this point to the lines of actions of all forces and enter perpendicular distances in the observation table. Show that anti-clockwise moment is equal to clockwise moments, which satisfy the condition, that ΣM=0. Repeat the experiment for different weights to get 2 more readings.

RESULT 1. The force polygons for the three sets of observations were drawn and found to be closed

polygons. Hence the Polygon Law of Coplanar Force is verified.

2. The unknown weight found experimentally is N. Within limits ofexperimental error, these values are found to be same and hence the experiment isverified.

EXPERIMENT NO.2 DATE: BEAM REACTION

AIM:-To find experimentally the reactions at the supports of a simply supported beam and compare the results with analytical values.

APPARATUS:-Simply supported beam setup, hangers, and loads.

THEORY:-Beam is a structural member usually horizontal and straight provided to carry loads that are vertical or inclined to its axis. A simply supported beam is one whose ends are resting freely on the supports that provide only vertical reactions. Simply supported beam becomes unstable if it is subjected to oblique or inclined loads. When simply supported beam is subjected to only vertical loads, its FBD forms a system of parallel forces in equilibrium. Conditions of equilibrium = 0 and ΣM=0 can be applied to determine the support reactions analytically.

PROCEDURE:-

1. Place the beam of length L on simple supports. Not e that below both the simple supports there is a spring arrangement. On loading, 1 he spring compresses due to the reaction force and this compressive force is indicated on the dial.

2. Arrange the load hangers arbitrarily on the beam and set the left and right dial pointers to zero. This will nullify the effect due to self weight of the beam and the hangers.

3. Suspend the loads from the hangers. Note the load values W1 W2, and so on and their distances X1, X2 and so on from the left support.

4. Note the left and right support dial readings.

5. Repeat the above steps 1 to 4 by changing the weights in the hangers and also the hanger position for two more sets of observations.

6. Compare the experimental values with analytical values obtained by applying Conditions of Equilibrium

EXPERIMENT NO.3 DATE:

BELL CRANK LEVER

AIM:-To verify the Principle of Moments using the Bell Crank Lever apparatus.

APPARATUS:- Bell crank lever apparatus, hangers, weights, scale.

THEORY:-Principle of Moments states, ‘the algebraic sum of the moments of a system of coplanar forces about any point in the plane is equal to the moment of the resultant force of the system about the same point’. This principle would be verified for a bell crank lever arrangement. A lever whose two arms form a right angle, or nearly a right angle and having its fulcrum at the apex of the angle is referred to as a bell crank lever. These levers were originally used to operate the bell from a long distance especially where change in direction of bell wires was involved and hence the name. Now bell crank levers are used in machines to convert the direction of reciprocation movement.

PROCEDURE:-

1. Arrange three hangers at arbitrary locations on the horizontal arm. Note the locations x1 , x2, and x3 of these hangers from the hinge. Adjust the tension in the spring connected to the vertical arm such that the two pointers come in the same vertical line. In this position the horizontal arm is truly horizontal. Note the tensile force in the spring as the initial tension Ti . Also note the location Y of the spring from the hinge.

2. Hang the weights W1, W2 and W3 from the hangers. This will cause the arms to tilt and the pointers to move away from each other. Now adjust the tension in the spring such that the pointers once again come in the same vertical line. The horizontal arm is once again in its horizontal position. Note the tensile force in the spring as the final tension Tf. The tensile force T on the vertical arm is the difference Tf — Ti.

3. Since the external forces are being supported by the single hinge at the apex of the arms, implies that the resultant of these external applied forces passes through the supporting hinge. Therefore to verify the principle of moments we need to take moments (ΣM) of all the external forces (which includes the weights of the hangers hanging from the horizontal arm and the tension in the spring connected to the vertical arm) about the hinge and if the total sum is zero, verifies the law of moments since the moment of the resultant is also zero at the hinge.

4. Repeat the above steps by changing the weights and their location on the horizontal arm for two more set of observations.

Engineering Mechanics

PRECAUTIONS:- 1 . Do not overload the horizontal arm as it may bend or crack at the hinge. 2. Note if any, the zero error of the spring balance and accordingly correct the readings. of the tensile force. 3. Carefully place the loads in the hangers as they may slip and cause accident.

RESULT:- The sum of moments of all the applied external forces on the bell crank lever, within limits of experimental error being close to zero, is in accordance to the Principle of Moments. Hence the experiment is verified.

FRICTION

AIM:-To find the Coefficient of Friction between two surfaces.

APPARATUS:- Inclined Plane with pulley, weights,Trolleys,weight pan etc.

THEORY Friction force is developed whenever there is a motion or tendency of motion of one body with respect to the other body involving rubbing of the surfaces of contact. Friction is therefore a resistance force to sliding between two bodies produced at the common surfaces of contact.

Friction occurs because no surface is perfectly smooth, however flat it may appear. On every surface there are ‘microscopic hills and valleys’ and due to this the surfaces get interlocked making it difficult for one surface to slide over the other. During static state the friction force developed at the contact surface depends on the magnitude of the disturbing force. When the body is on the verge of motion the contact surface offers maximum frictional force called as ‘Limiting Frictional Force’.

In 1781 the French Physicist Charles de Coulomb found that the limiting frictional force did not depend on the area of contact but depends on the materials involved and the pressure (normal reaction) between them. Thus frictional force F α N

or F = μsN Here μs is the coefficient of static friction, a term introduced by Coulomb. The value of lies between 0 and 1 and it depends on both the surfaces of contact. Coefficient of static friction ‘μs’ between two surfaces can be found out experimentally by two methods, viz. Angle of Repose method and Friction Plane method.

Engineering Mechanics

The minimum angle of an inclined plane at which a body kept on it slides down the plane without the application of any external force is known as Angle of Repose. It is denoted by letter φ . Angle of repose, φ = tan-1 μs

PROCEDURE 1. Set the inclined plane with glass top at some angle with the horizontal. Note the inclination θ of the plane on the quadrant scale. Take a box of known weight, note its bottom surface (whether surface is soft wood, or sand paper, or card board etc,) and weight W (weight of box + weights in the box) 2. Tie a string to the box and passing the string over a smooth pulley, attach an effort pan to it. 3. Slowly add weights in the effort pan. A stage would come when the effort pan just slides down pulling the box up the plane. Using fractional weights up to a least count of 5 gm, find the least possible weight in the pan that causes the box to just slide up the plane. Note the weight in the effort pan. This is force ‘P’. 4. Repeat the above steps 1 to 3 by changing the weights in the box for two more sets of observations.

RESULT:- 1. The coefficient of friction between mica and wood is ------------ 2. The coefficient of friction between mica and metal is ------------

MOMENT OF INERTIA OF A FLYWHEEL

AIM To find moment of inertia of a flywheel.

APPARATUS The flywheel mounted on ball bearings, stop watch, set of weights, pan, string, meter scale.

THEORY A flywheel; is a heavy metal wheel attached to the shaft of the prime mover (motor or engine). Flywheels have most of their mass concentrated on the circumstances, thereby giving high moment of inertia. We know rotating bodies possess kinetic energy given by the relation K.E = 1/2 Iω2. Hence if moment of inertia I is increased, K.E also increases. Flywheels thus store the kinetic energy and release it back to the system when required. They are therefore called as ‘reservoir of energy’.

An imported application of a flywheel is in a mechanical press where for a fraction of time high energy is required for actual punching, shearing or forming. This energy is supplied by the flywheel. During the longer non active period, the speed of the flywheel is built up slowly by a low powered motor. Thus the motor is not overloaded and also results in energy saving.

In automobiles, the flywheel is provided by the combustion in the cylinders and provides energy for the compression stroke in the pistons.

PROCEDURE 1. Wind a string around the shaft of the flywheel. Attach a pan of known weight from the end of the string. Hold the pan i.e. does not allow the flywheel to rotate.

2. Measure the diameter of the axle with a Vernier caliper.

3. Add some weight in the pan and note the total mass ‘m’ of the pan. Also note the height ‘h’ of the base of the pan from the ground.

4. Hold a stop watch and now release the pan. The pan accelerates and gains velocity as it travels down. Note the time and rotations ‘N1’ turned by the flywheel till the pan touches the ground.

5. When the pan hits the ground it gets detached from the flywheel. The flywheel continues to rotate. Note the rotations ‘N2’ turned by the flywheel from the moment the pan touches the ground till the flywheel stops.

6. Repeat the above steps by changing the height of the pan from the ground and the moment weight in the pan for one more set of observations.
