Two blocks of rubber with a modulus of rigidity G =10 MPa are bonded to rigid supports and to a plate AB. Knowing that b = 200 mm and c = 125 mm, determine the largest allowable load P and the smallest allowable thickness a of the blocks if the shearing stress in the rubber is not to exceed 1.2 MPa and the deflection of the plate is to be at least 6 mm.

An electrical motor raises a 50kg load at a construct velencity .calculate the power of the motor, if it takes 40sec to raise the load through a height of 24m(take g =9.8n/g)

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.

Which of the following components of a pid controlled accumulates the error over time and responds to system error after the error has been accumulated? a)- proportional b)- derivative c)- integral d)- on/off.
