Hi guys,

I'm working on one assignment about C-Spanner screw an impeller failure analysis. However, we're unsure if the free body diagram we draw is correct or not, given that our calculated safety factor is unreasonable.

Can anyone give us a hand and have a look. Moreover, if someone can provide the correct free body diagram, that would be much appreciate.

Regards,

Related to Is the Free Body Diagram for C-Spanner Screw Failure Analysis Correct?

1. What is a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram?

A C-Spanner Free Body Diagram is a visual representation of the forces acting on a system or object, typically used in engineering and physics. It shows all external forces acting on the system and their relative magnitudes and directions.

2. How is a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram different from a regular Free Body Diagram?

A C-Spanner Free Body Diagram is specifically used for systems or objects that have rotational motion, whereas a regular Free Body Diagram is used for objects with linear motion. The C-Spanner Free Body Diagram takes into account the torque or moment of forces acting on the system, in addition to the linear forces.

3. What are the key elements of a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram?

The key elements of a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram include the object or system being analyzed, all external forces acting on the object, the point of rotation or axis of rotation, and the moment arm or distance between the point of rotation and the applied force.

4. How do you use a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram in problem solving?

To use a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram in problem solving, you must first identify the object or system being analyzed and all external forces acting on it. Next, determine the point of rotation and moment arm for each force. Then, use the principles of rotational equilibrium to solve for any unknown forces or moments.

5. Can a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram be used for non-rotational systems?

No, a C-Spanner Free Body Diagram is specifically designed for systems with rotational motion. For non-rotational systems, a regular Free Body Diagram can be used to analyze the linear forces acting on the object or system.
