Q.1 Short Questions 14
1 What is Machine design? Why the study of machine design
is necessary?
2 Differentiate among shaft, spindle and axle.
3 Write any two applications of knuckle joint.
4 Why nut is manufactured from phosphor bronze in case of
power screws?
5 Define lead and state the relation between lead and pitch in
case of threaded screws.
6 What is the function of cotter in cotter joint? Where it is
used?
7 What is the difference between rigid coupling and flexible
coupling?
8 Differentiate between crushing stress and bearing stress.
9 “As the value of tolerances increases i.e. more precise
tolerances, the cost of manufacturing the product is
increases”, Justify the statement.
Q.2 (a) What are the reasons for using factor of safety? Why its 03
values are different for different applications?

(c) Find the suitable size of 300 mm long push rod of a petrol 07
engine carrying a maximum load of 1400 N. It is hollow in
section having the outer diameter 1.25 times the inner
diameter. Spherical seated bearings are used for the push
rod. The modulus of elasticity for the material of the push
rod is 210 kN / mm2. Assume factor of safety of 2.5.
Q.5 (a) Explain different form of threads used in power screws. 03
(b) Explain the phenomenon of self locking and overhauling of 04
power screws.
(c) A power screw having double start square threads of 25 mm 07
nominal diameter and 5 mm pitch is acted upon by an axial
load of 10 kN. The outer and inner diameters of screw collar
are 50 mm and 20 mm respectively. The coefficient of thread
friction and collar friction may be assumed as 0.2 and 0.15
respectively. The screw rotates at 12 rpm. Assuming uniform
wear condition at the collar and allowable thread bearing
pressure of 5.8 N/mm2, find: (i) the torque required to rotate
the screw; (ii) the stress in the screw; and (iii) the number of
threads of nut in engagement with screw.
