suddenly released.
8 (a) Define critical speed of shafts. Obtain the expression for the critical speed of shaft having a single disc at
the center without damping.
(b) A disc of mass 4 kg is mounted midway between bearings which may he assumed to be simple supports.
The bearing span is 48 cm. The steel shaft which is horizontal is 9 mm diameter, the CG of the disc is
displaced 3 mm from the geometric center. The equivalent viscous damping at the center of the disc shaft
may be taken as 49 N-s/m. If the shaft rotates at 760 rpm, determine the maximum stress in the shaft and
compare it with dead load stress in the shaft, also find the power required to drive the shaft at this speed.
