rod assuming a factor of safety of 5 and ultimate stress of 64000 lb/in^2.
Torsional – What is the metal characteristic to withstand forces that causes twisting?
Modulus of elasticity - what is the stress to strain ratio within the elastic limit?
Spring index – How do you call the ratio of mean diameter coil and the coil diameter of a spring?
All of these - Belt Slip may take place because of heavy belt, driving pulley too small and loose load.

pulleys are 40 cm and 15 cm, what is the length of the belt needed?
4530 psi – compute the maximum unit shear in a 3 in diameter steel shafting that transmits 24000 in-lb
of torque at 99 rpm.
Screw - This is an externally threaded fastener capable of being inserted into holes in assembled parts,
or mating with a preformed internal thread or forming its own thread and of being tightened or released
by torqueing the head.
Extra-coarse thread UNEC - which is not a standard thread, coarse-thread UNC, fine thread UNF, extra-
coarse thread UNEC, and 8-thread 8-UN?
Quick-return Mechanism – A mechanism that includes an oscillating link or a reciprocating slider that
moves forward slowly and returns quickly, with constant speed input.
Clearance - it is the difference between the addendum and the dedendum which is equivalent to the
whole depth less working depth.
Addendum – Height of tooth above pitch circle or the radial distance between pitch cirlcle and top land
of the tooth.

related as follows:
