2. Design a double dwell cam to move a follower from 0 to (30+x) mm in 45 degrees,
dwell for 150 degrees, fall (30+x) mm in 90 degrees and dwell for the remainder. The
total cycle must take 6 sec. Choose suitable polynomial function for rise and draw
SVAJ diagram. What will be the jerk at 40 degrees of cam rotation? (6+4+2)

3. The turbine rotor of a ship has a mass of 3500 kg. It has a radius of gyration of 0.45 m
and a speed of 3000 r.p.m. clockwise when looking from stern. Determine the
gyroscopic couple and its effect upon the ship when the ship is steering to the left on
a curve of (100+x) m radius at a speed of 36 km/h. (4 + 1)

4. A shaft fitted with a flywheel rotates at (250+x) r.p.m. and drives a machine. The
torque of machine varies in a cyclic manner over a period of 3 revolutions. The torque
rises from 750 N-m to 3000 N-m uniformly during 1/2 revolution and remains
constant for the following revolution. It then falls uniformly to 750 N-m during the
next 1/2 revolution and remains constant for one revolution, the cycle being repeated
thereafter. Determine the power required to drive the machine and percentage
fluctuation in speed, if the driving torque applied to the shaft is constant and the mass
of the flywheel is 500 kg with radius of gyration of 600 mm. (8)
