A simply supported beam is loaded by a couple M as shown. The beam is 2m long and of square cross section 50 mm on a side. If the maximum permissible deflection in the beam is 5mm, and the allowable stress is 150 MPa, find the maximum allowable load M. Use E=200GPa.

Afour cylinder four-stroke in-line engine has a stroke of 160mm, connecting rod length of 150mm, a reciprocating mass of 3kg and its firing order is 1-3-4-2. the spacing between cylinders is 100mm. i. show that the engine is in balance with regard to the primary inertia forces and primary 3. a and secondary inertia couples. li determine the out of balance secondary inertia force ii. propose ways of balancing this out of balance force and discuss the challenges that will arise
