The Ackerman steering gear mechanism is preferred to the Davis steering gear mechanism, because
-
The two links are said to have a pure rolling contact, when their instantaneous centre __________ on their point of contact.
-
One end of a helical spring is fixed while the other end carries the load W which moves with simple harmonic motion. The frequency of motion is given by (where δ = Deflection of the spring)
-
The instantaneous centre of a rigid thin disc rolling on a plane rigid surface is located at
-
The coefficient of fluctuation of speed is __________ of maximum fluctuation of speed and the mean speed.
-
A rigid body, under the action of external forces, can be replaced by two masses placed at a fixed distance apart. The two masses form an equivalent dynamical system, if
-
When two pulleys are connected by means of a cross belt drive, then both the pulleys will rotate in __________ directions.
-
The ratio of velocities of the shafts connected by Hooke's joint is given by (where N and N1 = Speed of driving and driven shafts (in r.p.m.) respectively, θ = Angle through which the arms of the cross turn, and α = Angle of inclination between the two shafts)
