Derive formula for torque required to raise the load and torque required
to lower the load by a square threaded power screw.
A lead screw of a lathe has ACME threads of 50mm outer diameter and a
pitch of 8mm the axial load on the lead screw is 3000N the thrust is
carried by a collar of 120mm outer diameter and 60mm inner diameter.
The lead screw rotates at 40 rpm. Find the power required to drive the
screw and the efficiency of the screw. Assume friction in threads as 0.15
and that at the collar as 0.12. Evaluate the results based on uniform
pressure theory and uniform wear theory.

An eccentrically loaded bolted joint as shown in (fig. 2), is to be designed.
All bolts are to be of same size. Determine the size of bolts, if permissible
shear stress for bolt is 50 MPa.
