Which of the following statements are correct in the case of torque transmission through a cone clutch?
I. Torque capacity is directly proportional to sin α, where α is half cone angle.
II. If half cone angle (α) is less than the angle of static friction, then cone clutch has tendency to self engage.
III. For the given dimensions, torque capacity of cone clutch is higher than that of single plate clutch.
IV. Width of friction lining does not affect the torque capacity.
