Step-by-step solution
6 stepsTo calculate the distance between the rollers, we need to determine the horizontal position of the center of each roller relative to the corners of the base.
Identify the given values and calculate the roller radius.
The diameter of the rollers is .
The radius of each roller is .
The bottom width of the groove is .Determine the angle of the left inclined face with the horizontal.
The diagram shows an internal angle of between the top horizontal line and the left inclined face.
The angle of the left inclined face with the horizontal, , is .Calculate the horizontal distance from the left corner to the center of the left roller.
For a roller tangent to a horizontal surface and an inclined surface, the horizontal distance from the corner (where the two surfaces meet) to the center of the roller is given by , where is the angle of the inclined surface with the horizontal.
For the left roller:Determine the angle of the right inclined face with the horizontal.
The diagram shows an internal angle of between the top horizontal line and the right inclined face.
The angle of the right inclined face with the horizontal, , is .Calculate the horizontal distance from the right corner to the center of the right roller.
For the right roller:
Calculate the distance .
The distance is the horizontal distance between the centers of the rollers. This can be found by subtracting the horizontal distances and from the total bottom width of .
Rounding to two decimal places:
The final answer is .
