In a point to point control $$NC$$ machine, the slides are positioned by an integrally mounted stepper motor drive. If the specification of the motor is $$1$$ deg/pulse, and the pitch of the lead screw is $$3.6$$ $$mm,$$ what is the expected positioning accuracy?

A mass of 35 kg is suspended from a weightless bar AC, which is supported by a cable CB and a pin at A as shown in Fig. below. The pin reactions at A on the bar AB are

The suspension system of a two-wheeler can be equated to a single spring-mass system with a viscous damper connected in series. Sketch the free body diagram and give the equations of motion. For a mass $$m = 50$$ $$kg$$ and a spring with a stiffness of $$35$$ $$kN/m,$$ determine what should be the damping coefficient (damping constant) for critical damping. What can be the damping force for a plunger velocity of $$0.05$$ $$m/s$$?

Consider an actual regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feed water heater. For each $$kg$$ steam entering the turbine, if $$m$$ $$kg$$ steam with a specific enthalpy of $${h_1}$$ is bled from the turbine, and the specific enthalpy of liquid water entering the heater is $${h_2},$$ then $${h_3},$$ the specific enthalpy of saturated liquid leaving the heater is equal to
