Expert Solution

Answer:

(a) Calculation of the torsional yield strength

Material given as music wire and with ends grounded and squarred,

From the table of different materials properties from the internet and online source, we can find for music wire

A=2211 MPa

m=.145

Wire diameter d= 5

Now from the equation of ultimate tensile strength

MPa

As we know that tortional yield strength can be given as

Answer

(b)Calculation of the static load corresponding to torsional yield strength

As given that mean coil diameter D=34.93

Wire diameter d=5.87

Spring index can be found as

Again corresponding to new wire diameter we have to calculate the tortional yield strength

As per the shear stress equation

Where

From equation 1

Answer

(c) Calculation of  the spring scale

As given that mean coil diameter D=25.5

Wire diameter d=4.61

No of active coils=23

For music wrire corrosponding to the wire dia of 4.61, G=81 GPa

Spring rate can be given as

(d)Calculation of  the deflection

Now the mean coil diameter is 25.21 and wire diameter is 5.91 with active coils 20

Doing the same calculation with the iteration as same as above parts b and c. we can find the Force and deflection by putting the values in the above formulas and we will get the values as

F=2222 N

k=35854 N/m

Deflection can be given as

y=61 mm answer

(e) Calculaion of the solid length

Total no of active coild Na=20

For squared and ground ends

Given d=5.44

(f) Calculation of the free length

Again as per (e) part we have to calculate solid length first with the new wire dia and active coils

Free length

y is calculated again coresponding to the new diameters

(g)Calculation of the pitch

L0 we will have to calculate again with the new diameter value and it will found as
