The figure shows a thin cylindrical pressure vessel constructed by welding plates together along a line that makes an angle $\alpha = 60^\circ$ with the horizontal. The closed vessel has a wall thickness of 10 mm and diameter of 2 m. When subjected to an internal pressure of 200 kPa, the magnitude of the normal stress acting on the weld is _________ MPa (rounded off to 1 decimal place).

The change in kinetic energy $\Delta E$ of an engine is $300$ J, and minimum and maximum shaft speeds are $\omega_{min} = 220$ rad/s and $\omega_{max} = 280$ rad/s, respectively. Assume that the torque-time function is purely harmonic. To achieve a coefficient of fluctuation of $0.05$, the moment of inertia (in kg.m$^2$) of the flywheel to be mounted on the engine shaft is
A linear spring-mass-dashpot system with a mass of 2 kg is set in motion with viscous damping. If the natural frequency is 15 Hz, and the amplitudes of two successive cycles measured are 7.75 mm and 7.20 mm, the coefficient of viscous damping (in N.s/m) is
The Levi type-A train illustrated in the figure has gears with module $m = 8 \text{ mm/tooth}$. Gears 2 and 3 have 19 and 24 teeth respectively. Gear 2 is fixed and internal gear 4 rotates at 20 rev/min counter-clockwise. The magnitude of angular velocity of the arm is _________ rev/min. (rounded off to 2 decimal places)
