160°. If the maximum tension in the belt is 700 N. Find the power transmitted by a belt. (8)

13. a). A cam operating knife edged follower has the following data:
(a) Follower moves outwards through 40 mm during 60° of cam rotation.
(b) Follower dwells for the next 45°
(c) Follower returns to its original position during next 90° .
(d) Follower dwells for the rest of the rotation.

outward and return strokes. The least radius of the cam is 50 mm. Draw the profile of the
cam when the axis of the follower passes through the cam axis.

15. b) A shaft carries three mass are A, B, C of magnitude 200 kg, 300 kg and 400 kg, respectively and
the corresponding radius of rotation are 80 mm, 70 mm and 80 mm in planes measured from A
at 300 mm and 700 mm. The angles between the cranks measured anticlockwise are A to B 45°,
B to C 70°. The balancing masses are to be placed in planes X &Y. The distance between the
planes A and X is 200 mm, Between X and y is 300 mm. If the balancing masses revolve at a
radius of 200 mm Find their magnitudes and angular positions, Find the position and the
magnitude of balance mass required if its radius of rotation is 0.2 m. Solve the problem
analytically and graphically.
