The two shafts are made of a-36 steel. each has a diameter of 25 mm and they are connected using the gears fixed to their ends. their other ends are attached to fixed supports at a and b. they are also supported by journal bearings at c and d, which allow free rotation of the shafts along their axes. if a torque of 500 n*m is applied to the gear at e as shown, determine the rotation of the gear at e

Amixture of slurry and mud is to be pumped through a horizontal pipe of diameter 500 mm. the fluid behaves as a bingham plastic with a yield stress of 30 pa and viscosity 0.04 pa.s. describe the effects of the shear stress through a transverse section of the pipe by plotting the variation in shear stress and velocity profile: (i) just before the slurry starts to move (ii) as the slurry flows when the pressure gradient is double that in part (i)
