Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1897.Morse Department of Special CollectionsIntroduction: A variably loaded crank is one that is loaded and relieved at certain intervals of its path of rotation. A good example of one is a hay press, or _____ pump crank. A moment is the measure of a tendency of a force to rotate about a fixed point. It is the product of the force into the perpendicular distance from the point of rotation to the line in the direction of the acting force.The organization that has made the Item available believes that the Item is in the Public Domain under the laws of the United States, but a determination was not made as to its copyright status under the copyright laws of other countries.
