secondary force and also couples for the two crank orders.
(f) A single cylinder engine runs at 250 r.p.m. and has a stroke of 180
mm. The reciprocating parts have a mass of 120 kg and the
revolving parts are equivalent to a mass of 70 kg at a radius of 90

balance the whole of revolving mass and two- third of the
reciprocating mass. Determine the magnitude of balancing mass
