List of top Design of Machine Elements Questions asked in GATE PI

A custom pinion, with a width equal to 10 times the module, has 20 full depth teeth and a pressure angle of 20 degrees is being designed. It should transmit a torque of 95 N-m to a corresponding spur gear.

Considering the safe bending stress to be 180 MPa and form factor to be 0.342, the module of the pinion is ______ mm (rounded off to one decimal place).

Note: The Lewis equation gives the tangential force as \( F_t = \sigma b Y m \), where \( \sigma \) is the safe bending stress, \( b \) is the width, \( Y \) is the form factor, and \( m \) is the module.
