IMPORTANT QUESTIONS
1. Explain self locking and self energized brakes.2. Derive an expression for tension ratio for band and block brake in terms of coefficient of
friction, block of contact and number of blocks in the shoe.
3. Explain rope brake dynamometer and prony brake dynamometer.4. In the differential band brake, the diameter of the drum is 900 mm, and the coefficient of

650 N is applied at the free end of the lever, find the maximum and the minimum force in the
band and the torque which can be applied by the brake. Take a=120 mm, b=100 mm and
l=500 mm. Assume clockwise rotation of the drum.
