All questions are compulsory. "Long Answer type Question (LAQ)" is a supply type question of 20 marks which requires a typical answer of about 60-80 lines in about 32-40 minute~. "Short Answer type Question (SAQ)" is a supply type question of 5 marks which requires a typical answer of about 15-20 lines in about 08-10 minutes. Use of a non-programmable type of scientific calculator is allowed. Draw neat diagrams wherever necessary. Assume suitable data if necessary.

a)

Calculate the strain energy of the bolt shown in the figure under a tensile load of lOkN. Show that the strain energy is increased for the same maximum stress by turning down th~ shank of the bolt to the root diameter of the thread.

b)

Referring to the figure, let a mass of 100kg fall 4cm onto a collar attached to a bar of steel of 2cm diameter, 3m long. Find the maximum stresS set up. TakeE = 205, 000 N/mm2.

b)

A laminated spring of the quarter elliptic type, O.6m long, is to provide a static deflection of 75mm under an end load of 200 kg. If the leaf material is 60 mm wide and 6mm thick, find the number of leaves required and the maximum stress. From what height can the load be dropped onto the undeflected spring to cause a maximum stress ()f 750 Nmm2 ? E = 208,000 N!mm2.
