An air compressor has a crank arrangement similar to that shown in Fig. 3-16. The stroke is 4 in., and the length of the rod is 7 in. Tire crank cheek is circular in cross section, and is 1 in. in diameter. Distance AC is equal to 1-1/8 in. If the torsional shearing stress at the midlength of the cheek is equal to 10,000 psi for a crank angle of 30°, find the value of the gas force on the piston.
