3) Determine the torque capacity for the single short shoe brake Shown in Figure. The coefficient of
friction is 0.35. Identify the shoe type (Leading or Trailing shoe)

4) A double external long shoe drum brake is illustrated in Figure 4 shown below. The face
width of the shoes is 50 mm and the maximum permissible lining pressure is 1 MPa. If the
coefficient of friction is 0.32 determine the limiting actuating force and the torque capacity.
