What do you understand by inversions of a mechanism? Show two inversions of a slider crank mechanism Wlth the help of neal sketches 20

A stepped shall ABC is 0.8 m long For a 1ength AB 0.4 shaft diameter is 40 mm and for length Be 0.4 shaft diameter is 20 mm. Shall" fixed at both the ends A and c. At the Section a torque T 1S applied which causes a maximum shear stress of 100 MPaln stepped shaft. Delenmne the magnitude of torque T

A cantilever ABC, 200 mm long and 20 mm diameter is fixed at end A as shown the above figure. A horizontal axia1 1oad of 10 kN, a vertical load of I kN acts at end C. Torque T applied it section C produces a maximum shear stress of intensity 50 MPa m cantilever
