Example 1:
A circular disc mounted on a shaft carries three attached masses of 4 kg, 3 kg
and 2.5 kg at radial distances of 75 mm, 85 mm and 50 mm and at the angular
positions of 45°, 135° and 240° respectively. The angular positions are
measured counterclockwise from the reference line along the x-axis. Determine
the amount of the counter mass at a radial distance of 75 mm required for the
static balance.
Given
• m1 = 4 kg r1 = 75 mm θ1 = 45°
• m2 = 3 kg r2= 85 mm θ2 = 135°

• m2r2 = 3 x 85 = 255kg.mm
• m3r3 = 2.5 x 50 =125 kg.mm
Analytical Method:
Σmiri + mcrc = 0

graphically as discussed below :
 Now draw the vector diagram with the above values, to some suitable
scale, as shown in Fig. 1.

1. The balancing force is equal to the resultant force. Since the balancing force
is proportional to mcrc therefore
• mc x 75 = vector co - 285.84 kg-mm or mc = 285.84/75
• mc = 3.81 kg.
2. By measurement we also find that the angle of inclination of the balancing
mass (m) from the horizontal or positive X-axis,
• θc = 276°.
 When several masses revolve in different planes they may be
transferred to a reference plane and this reference plane is a plane
passing through a point on the axis of rotation and perpendicular to it.

kg and 200 kg respectively and revolving at radii 80 mm. 70 mm. 60 mm. and
80 mm in planes measured from A at 300 mm. 400 mm and 700 mm. The
angles between the cranks measured anticlockwise are A to B 450 B to C 700
and C to D I200. The balancing masses are to be placed in planes X and Y.
The distance between the planes A and X is 100 mm. between X and Y is 400
mm and between Y and D is 200 mm. If the balancing masses revolve at a
radius of 100 mm. find their magnitudes and angular positions.

mB = 300 kg : rB = 70 mm = 0.07 m
mc - 400 kg: rc = 60 mm = 0.06 m

mass A as horizontal) are shown in Fig. a and b respectively.
 Assume the plane X as the reference plane (R.P.). The distances of the
planes to the right of plane X are taken as + ve while the distances of the
planes to the left of plane X are taken as - ve. The data may be tabulated as
shown in Table 1.

• The balancing masses mx and my and their angular positions may be determined graphi-
cally as discussed below:
• First of all, draw the couple polygon from the data given in Table 1. (column 6) as
shown in Fig. (c) to some suitable scale. The vector d'o' represents the balanced couple.
Since the balanced couple is proportional to 0.04 my. therefore by measurement.
• 0.04mY = vector d'o' = 7.3 kg-m2 or mY = 182.5 kg
• The angular position of the mass mY is obtained by drawing omy in Fig. (b). Parallel to
vector d'o'. By measurement, the angular position of mY is θY =120 in the clockwise
direction from mass mA (i.e. 200 kg). Ans.
• Now draw the force polygon from the data given in Table 1. (column 4) as shown in
Fig. (d). The vector eo represents the balanced force. Since the balanced force is
proportional to 0.1 my therefore by measurement
• 0.1 mx = vector eo = 35.5 kg-m
• or mx =355 Ans.
• The angular position of the mass mx is obtained by drawing omx in Fig. (b).
Parallel to vector eo. By measurement, the angular position of mx is
θX=1450 in the clockwise direction from mass mx, (i.e. 200 kg) Ans.
