Question

A car jack uses a single square-thread screw to raise a known load. The major diameter and pitch of the screw and the thrust collar mean diameter are known. Running friction coefficients are estimated.

Find: 

(a) Estimate the efficiency of the jack for raising the load.

(b) Estimate the power required to drive the screw at a constant 1 revolution per second.

Schematic and Given Data: Load 50 kN

Load
50 kN
d
Single square-thread screw
D = 36 mm
p = 6 mm
dc = 80 mm
f = 0.2
f = 0.16
