Solved: The shaft has a square-threaded screw with a lead
Chapter 8, Problem 8-75(choose chapter or problem)
The shaft has a square-threaded screw with a lead of 8 mm and a mean radius of 15 mm. If it is in contact with a plate gear having a mean radius of 30 mm, determine the resisting torque M on the plate gear which can be overcome if a torque of 7 N \(\cdot\) m is applied to the shaft. The coefficient of static friction at the screw is \(\mu_{\mathrm{B}}\) = 0.2. Neglect friction of the bearings located at A and B.

ANSWER:
Step 1 of 6
Since we want to tighter the screw, the moment equilibrium equation is
From here we can express as:
