A machine vice whose length of the handle is 150mm and the coefficient of friction for thread and collar are 0.15 and 0.17 respectively has a force applied at handle of 125N. Also the outer and inner diameters of collar are 55mm and 45mm respectively. Find the screw torque in terms of clamping force W if nominal diameter=22mm and pitch=5mm.
(a) 3.567W N-mm
(b) 2.286W N-mm
(c) 3.564W N-mm
(d) None of the mentioned
I am working on this question that appeared in my unit test.
I would like to ask this question from the Power Screws Numericals in Threaded Joints of Machine Design
