2. Music wire extension spring has a wire diameter of 0.03 in, an outside coil diameter of 0.25 in, hook radii of r, o.108 in and r, 0.09 in and an initial tension of 1.2-lbf. The number of body turns N 12.2. Find the factors of safety under a static load 4.9-lbf. (30 points)Solution
solution;
1)here spring with hook end is subjected to initial tension 1.2 lbf or 5.337 N and load of 4.9 lbf or 21.79962 hence total oad on spring is
F=fi+F1=5.337+21.7962=27.1332 N
2)here for spring ,spring index is
C=D/d=.25/.03=8.333
3)stress correction factor
Ks=(1+.5/C)=1.06
4)hence shear stress in spring is given as
t=Ks(8*D*F/pi*d^3)=1051.12 N/mm2
5)where shear stress is given for spring is
tall=.4 sut/Nf
where Nf=factor of safety is mostly taken as for static load to be 1.5
hence value of Sut on equating are
Sut=3942 N/mm2
