The 12-kg slender rod is pinned to a small roller a that slides freely along the slot. if the rod is released from rest at θ = 0∘, determine the angular acceleration of the rod and the acceleration of the roller immediately after the release.

Aplate clutch has a single pair of mating friction surfaces 250-mm od by 175-mm id. the mean value of the coefficient of friction is 0.30, and the actuating force is 4 kn. a) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-wear model. b) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-pressure model.

Thermal stresses are developed in a metal when its a) initial temperature is changed b) final temperature is changed c) density is changed d) thermal deformation is prevented e) expansion is prevented f) contraction is prevented

Slip occurs via two partial dislocations because of (a) the shorter path of the partial dislocation lines; (b) the lower energy state through partial dislocations; (c) the charge balance.
