01 Dimensions and Areas of Circles

HOMEWORK FOR SECTION 1

1) Find the area and circumference of a circle 10 mm in diameter.

2) On Handbook page 1062, for a 5-mm diameter tool or work-piece rotating at 318 rpm, the
corresponding cutting speed is given as 5 meters per minute. Check this value.

3) For a cylinder 100 mm in diameter and 10 mm high, what is the surface area not including the top or
bottom?

4) A steel column carrying a load of 10,000 pounds has a diameter of 10 inches. What is the pressure on
the floor in pounds per square inch?

5) What is the ratio of the area of a square of any size to the area of a circle having the same diameter as
one side of the square?

6) What is the ratio of the area of a circle to the area of a square inscribed in that circle?

7) The drilling speed for cast iron is assumed to be 70 feet per minute. Find the time required to drill two
holes in each of 500 castings if each hole has a diameter of 3⁄4 inch and is 1 inch deep. Use 0.010 inch
feed and allow one-fourth minute per hole for setup.

8) Find the weight of a cast-iron column 10 inches in diameter and 10 feet high. Cast iron weighs 0.26
pound per cubic inch.

9) If machine steel has a tensile strength of 55,000 pounds per square inch, what should be the diameter
of a rod to support 36,000 pounds if the safe working stress is assumed to be one-fifth of the tensile
strength?

10) Moving the circumference of a 16-inch automobile flywheel 2 inches moves the camshaft through
how many degrees? (The camshaft rotates at one-half the flywheel speed.)

11) What is the area within a circle that surrounds a square inscribed in the circle (shaded area)?

12) A hydraulic cylinder, rated for 2000 psi, is said to have 5-inchbore and 2.5-inch piston diameter. If
operated at the rated pressure, what forces could be developed on extension and return strokes?
