3. Two shafts, having axes in the same plate intersecting at an angle of 45°, turn in opposite senses at 30 rpm and 90 rpm. Draw a pair of cone to be located on these shafts and turn in pure rolling contact. Diameter of base of smaller cone is 1 in. Calculate the cone angles.

Use Laplace transform method to find the solution of linear ordinary differential equation (d ^ 2 * x)/(d * t ^ 2) - 2 * (dx)/(dt) + x = e ^ t epsilon = 2, (dx)/(dt) = - 1 with at t = 0

Forces 32 kN, 24 kN, 24 kN and 120 kN are concurrent at origin and are respectively directed through the points whose coordinates are A (2, 1, 6), B (4 –2, 5), C (–3, –2, 1) and D (5, 1, –2). Determine the magnitude of the resultant and the angles it makes with coordinate axes

A compound cylinder is formed by shrinking a tube of 200mm outside and 150mm inside diameter on to one of 150mm outside and 100mm inside diameter. Owing to shrinkage the radial stress at the common surface is 20 MN/m². If this cylinder is now subjected to an internal pressure of 100 MN/m², what is the magnitude and position of the maximum hoop stress?
