In the machinists vise shown, the movable jaw D is rigidly attached to the tongue AB

Chapter 8, Problem 8.143

(choose chapter or problem)

In the machinists vise shown, the movable jaw D is rigidly attached to the tongue AB that fits loosely into the fixed body of the vise. The screw is single-threaded into the fixed base and has a mean diameter of 0.75 in. and a pitch of 0.25 in. The coefficient of static friction is 0.25 between the threads and also between the tongue and the body. Neglecting bearing friction between the screw and the movable head, determine the couple that must be applied to the handle in order to produce a clamping force of 1 kip.
