Hi, sorry I've took so long to reply.
Yes the 85 mm is the overall length of the slot, which would make the distance between the radius centre points 45 mm.
This is an assignment, the first one I've been given and I was struggling to find K. I was required to analytically find the axial...
I apologise for my ignorance. Like I said I'm very new to this.
Thankyou for also pointing out my glaringly massive mistake in missing out the dimensions :blushing:
The slot is 85 mm x 40 mm, which makes the radius of the rounded end 20 mm.
Thanks again.
