Two shafts having an included angle of 150° are connected by a Hooke’s joint. The driving shaft runs at a uniform speed of 1500 r.p.m. The driven shaft carries a flywheel of mass 12 kg and 100 mm radius of gyration. Using the above data, calculate the maximum angular acceleration of the driven shaft in rad/s^2.

(a) 6853

(b) 6090

(c) 6100

(d) 6500

The question was posed to me in semester exam.

This question is from Double Hooke’s Joint in section Friction of Machine Kinematics

Right option is (a) 6853

Easy explanation: α = 180 -150 = 30⁰

cos2θ = 2sin^2 α/1-sin^2 α = 0.66

angular acc = dω/dt

= 6853.0 rad/s^2.
