Clutch and Brake Torque Calculations

The document contains multiple problems related to calculating values like pressure, torque capacity, and force for different brake and clutch systems. It provides diagrams and specifications for plate clutches, multidisk plate clutches, cone clutches, rim brakes, block brakes, and band brakes. It includes given values like diameters, coefficients of friction, actuating forces and asks to calculate values like maximum pressure, braking/transmitting torque, tensions, and bearing loads using uniform wear and uniform pressure models.

located. Find the maximum pressure and the total braking torque.
