Data Given in lab sheet
The torque drum diameter of shaft 1 is 76.2mm, and the torque drum diameters of shafts 2, 3 and 4 are 50.8mm.
t1 = 90 teeth t2 = 30 teeth and 96 teeth
3 t = 24 teeth and 100 teeth t4 = 20 teeth

Procedure As given in lab sheet
1. Mesh all gears to produce a four-shaft train. 2. Mount the probe to monitor 60-hole circle on the inertia disc attached to shaft 4. 3. Apply accelerating mass via a wire to the torque drum on shaft 1. This mass will produce accelerating torque T1. Use masses: 6, 8, 10, 12 kg. 4. Using the ratchet handle raise the mass m ass and stop any rotation in the mechanism. 5. Release the mass by removing the ratchet handle and allow it to accelerate freely under the action of gravity. 6. Note the readings displayed on the counter co unter timer sequentially as they appear until mass hits the floor. Since there are 60 holes, each frequency reading will represent the average angular velocity of shaft 4 in revolutions per minute displayed at two seconds’ intervals. It is recommended recommended to use a video recorder (mobile phone camera) to record these readings for po post-processing. st-processing. 7. Repeat steps 3 - 6 for other accelerating masses. 8. For each run (accelerating mass): a. plot angular velocity (in rad/s) against time (s) for shaft 4. b. from the plots deduce the angular accelerations of shafts 4 (slope of the curve in 8a). 8a) . c. calculate transmission ratio of the gear box d. compute angular acceleration of shaft 1using results obtained in 8b for shaft 4. 9. Calculate values of angular accelerations of shaft 1 for the same accelerating masses theoretically. 10. Compare the results with those obtained experimentally in section 8.

Discussion
1. Derive the formula for calculation of the angular acceleration of shaft 1 theoretically and present all computations.

2. Comment on the agreement between measured and calculated values of angular acceleration. Table 6 shows a correlation c orrelation between the load and the percentage error, as the load increases the percentage error decreases. The largest percentage error in this experiment is 13.76%, this was using the 6 kg load. This is quite significant compared to 4.53% error from the 12 kg load. Theoretically the acceleration of the weights should be linear until the weight drops to the ground and then immediately starts decelerating. However, as this experiment was conducted in an uncontrolled environment it was hard to minimise all of the factors that could impact the experiment (The errors in the experiment are mentioned in more detail in answer 3).

ENGD2005- Theory of Machines 3. Is the angular acceleration constant? If not, to what do you attribute any discrepancy and is the assumption of constant acceleration justified? From figures 3,4,5,6 we can see that the acceleration is mostly linear, with a few anomalies. These anomalies could have been caused by many different factors; such as air resistance, parallax error, apparatus malfunction, percent error and random error. Air resistance could have occurred whilst the weight was being dropped, and whilst the gears were spinning. The increase in air resistance would have decreased the acceleration of the acceleration of the weight whilst it was dropping to the ground. Parallax error could have occurred whilst a student was measuring one metre from the ground to the weight. This could have caused the height to be more/less than one metre; this will have an impact on the acceleration value. The apparatus used (figures 1,2) could have been damaged or not calibrated; This would have been caused by continuous use or lack of maintenance. T Random error could have been caused when the readings from the timer were taken. As the readings were given every 2 seconds, there is a possibility that the results reader did not capture the result at the specific time, which may have resulted in a value being m missed issed out. Although, there seems to be an abundance of errors that could’ve occurred during the experiment, the percentage errors seem to be relatively small. 4. This is one method of angular acceleration measuring. Is it satisfactory? Can you offer an alternative and/or better method? There are many ways in which this experiment could have been more accurate and minimise the risk or errors. However, there is not one method that could eliminate all errors and give the perfect reading. Below you will see a brief description on how the errors mentioned in question 3 could have been minimised. The likelihood of Air resistance being prevented is very minimal, as the experiment will most likely have to be conducted in a controlled environment where it is placed in a vacuum. Parallax error could be minimised if an electronic tool was used to measure the distance between the ground and the weight. Apparatus error could be minimised mi nimised by either getting more accurate measurement devices, or having the equipment maintained on a regular basis. Random error could have been prevented if an electronic device recorded the results In conclusion, the experiment held was satisfactory as the acceleration calculated and obtained was very close to the theoretical value even though there could have been a few errors. However, there could have been other ways to carry out this experiment such as connecting a motor instead of weights and calculating the rate of acceleration through this way. This would ensure less errors as parallax, air resistance should be less than the method used here. The load will be connected to one side of the gears with the motor on the other side. The load will be varied to calculate the rate of acceleration; this would result in different acceleration rates like this experiment.
