How many hours should it take an articulated wheel loader equipped with a 4-yd^3 bucket to load 3000 yd^3 of gravel (average material)from a stockpile into rail cars if the average haul distance is 300 ft one way? The area is level with a rolling resistance factor of 120 lb/ton. Job efficiency is estimated at 50 min/h.

When using the ohmmeter function of a digital multimeter, the leads are placed in what position relative to the component being tested? a. parallel b. control c. series d. line

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10

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.
