    PART B

    1. Four masses A, B, C and D revolve at equal radii and are equally spaced along a shaft.

    The mass B is 7 kg and the radii of C and D make angles of 90 and 240 respectively
    with the radius of B. Find the magnitude of the masses A, C and D and the angular
    position of A so that the system may be completely balanced.
    2. The following particulars relate to an outside cylinder of uncoupled locomotive:

    Revolving mass per cylinder = 300kg; Reciprocating mass per cylinder = 450 kg; Length
    of each crank = 350 mm; Distance between wheels = 1.6 m; Distance between cylinder
    centers = 1.9 m; Diameter of driving wheels = 2m; Radius of balancing mass = 0.8m;
    angle between the cranks = 90. If the whole of the revolving mass and 2/3 of the
    reciprocating masses are to be balanced in planes of driving wheels, determine;
    Magnitude and direction of the balance masses, speed at which the wheel will lift off the
    rails when the load on each driving wheel is 35 KN, and Swaying couple at
    speed
    arrived in (ii) above.
    3. A 4 cylinder engine has the two outer cranks as 120 to each other and their reciprocating

    masses are each 400 kg. The distance between the planes of rotation of adjacent cranks
    are 400mm, 700mm, 700mm and 500mm. Find the reciprocating mass and the relative
    angular position for each of the inner cranks, if the engine is to be in completely balance.
    Also find the maximum unbalanced secondary force, if the length of each crank is 350
    mm, the length of each connecting rod 1.7m and the engine speed 500 rpm.
    4. A 3 cylinder radial engine driven by a common crank has the cylinders spaced at 120.

    The stroke is 125 mm; the length of the connecting rod is 225 mm and the reciprocating
    mass per cylinder 2 kg. Calculate the primary and secondary forces at crank shaft speed
    of 1200 rpm.
