Internal Assessment Examination(Chance Exam)

Level: Bachelor Semester – Spring Year : 2023
Programme: BE Full Marks: 50
Course: Applied Mechanics -I Pass Marks: 22.5
Time : 1.5 hrs.
Candidates are required to give their answers in their own words as far
as practicable.
The figures in the margin indicate full marks.
Attempt all the questions.

1. Solve for the reactions at L, M, N and S on the two cylinders [7]

shown in Fig. below, assuming all surfaces to be smooth.

2 Locate the centroid of the given area shown below. [8]

2. Draw shear force and bending moment diagram of given simply [15]
1
 supported beam. Also determine Salient points

3. Analyse the force in each member of the given truss. [7]

4. a) The two blocks shown start from rest. The horizontal plane and the [8]
pulley are frictionless. The pulley is assumed to be of negligible
mass. Mass of block A is 30kg and of B is 25kg. Determine the
acceleration of each block and tension in each cord.

b) The relation between the angle of rotation and the time in the case [5]
of a rotating body is given by the equation, θ = 2t 3 + 3t2 + 15
radians, where t is in seconds. Determine the angular velocity,
displacement
and acceleration when t = 10 seconds and state whether the
acceleration is uniform.
