Front Sheet


In your work as a mechanical technician, you may have to deal with a variety of

calculations and manipulations that need a knowledge of circular measurements,

triangular measurements and mensuration. As part of your course you are

required to prove your abilities to do such algebraic methods of calculations

and manipulations through solving the following tasks:






























Task 1: [ P10 ]

A.

1.
The length, l , of a rectangular area is 4m longer than its width, w. find the
derivative of the length of the diagonal, D, with respect to, w.

Newtons law of cooling states that the rate at which an object cools is directly

proportional to the difference in its temperature, T, and the temperature of the

surrounding medium. By use of this law, the time, t (in minutes) a certain metal

object takes, in an experiment, to cool from C

Task 2: [ D1 ]
A.
Tool life is the time a tool can be reliably be used for cutting before it must be
Either discarded or repaired such as lathe bits which are regularly reground after
use.
A tool life equation was developed by Taylor, and is outlined below,
C VT
n
=
Where,

= V cutting Velocity in feet per minute

= T tool life in minutes

= n a constant based on the tool material

= C a constant based on the tool and work

If in turning of a 2 cm diameter steel rod by a given cutting tool (material

and geometry) at a given machining condition under a given environment

(cutting fluid application), the tool life decreases from 80 min to 15 min.

due to increase in cutting velocity,

from 60 m/min to 140 m/min. according
to the data measurements below:

1. Find the cutting velocity in m/min. and in RPM (Rounds per Minute)

at which the life of that tool under the same condition and environment

will be 25 min.?

2. Plot ( T log ) versus ( V log ) and hence find the constants ( n )and ( C ).


3. Analyze the results by applying the appropriate method of differential

calculus to check the results that you have already found by using

a graphical method

To charge a capacitor, just connect it to a potential (like a battery).Immediately

after closing the switch, current flows and charges up capacitor exponentially .

2. Find the slope of line tangent to the graph at time ( t 1 = t ) by drawing it on the plotted graph

at the specified point and calculating its slope from the graph (graphical method).


3. Find the slope of line tangent to the graph at time ( t 1 = t ) by use of differential calculus.

4. Compare the results of the two methods found in (2) and (3) of part ( B)of Task 2.
































Task 3: [ D2 ]
A.

1. By using definite integration derive a formula for the moment of inertia

of a disc of radius(R), thickness (t) and density ( ) rotating about its

center.

2. Find a formula for the disc radius of gyration in terms of its geometric

radius (R).

3. Calculate the moment of inertia and radius of gyration of the disc using

the formulae that you found above if:
