Theory of Machines Miscellaneous

  1. Two masses A and B having mass ma and mb, respectively, lying in the plane of the figure shown, are rigidly attached to a shaft which revolves about an axis through O perpendicular to the plane of the figure. The radii of rotation of t he masses ma and mb are ra and rb, respectively. The angle between lines OA and OB is 90°. If ma = 10 kg, mb = 20 kg ra = 200 mm and rb = 400 mm, then the balance mass to be placed at a radius of 200 mm is ____ kg (round off to two decimal places)
    1. 41.23 kg
    2. 42.23 kg
    3. 40.23 kg
    4. 45.23 kg
Correct Option: A

Let balancing mass = mc

mcrc = 8246.211

mc =
8246.211
= 41.23
200

mc = 41.23 kg
