The sliding glass door rolls on the two small lower wheels A and B. Under normal conditions the upper wheels do not touch their horizontal guide. (a) Compute the force P required to slide the door at a steady speed if wheel A becomes "frozen" and does not turn in its bearing. (b) Rework the problem if wheel B becomes frozen instead of wheel A. The coefficient of kinetic friction between a frozen wheel and the supporting surface is 0.25, and the center of mass of the 129-lb door is at its geometric center.

- Two shafts P and Q connected together by Hook's coupling have their axes inclined at 20°. The shaft P revolves at uniform speed of 1500 rpm and the shaft Q carries a flywheel of mass 15 kg and radius of gyration equal to 10 cm. Find the maximum torque in shaft Q if it is assumed that the shafts are torsionally rigid.
The rectangular steel yoke is used to prevent slip- P page between the two boards under tensile loads P. If the coefficients of static friction between the 200 mm yoke and the board surfaces and between the boards are all 0.30, determine the maximum value of h for which there is no slipping. For P = 800 N, deter- mine the corresponding normal force N between the two boards if motion impends at all surfaces. 150 mm h -210 mm-
Problem I A 2.25-kg slender rod AB and a 1.85-kg slender rod BC are connected by a pin at B and by the cord AC. The assembly designed by engineers can rotate in a vertical plane under the combined effect of gravity and a couple M applied to rod BC. Knowing that in the position shown, the 300 mm angular velocity of the assembly is zero and the tension in cord AC is equal to 25.0 N, determine; A (a) the angular acceleration of the assembly (b) the magnitude of the couple, M 400 mm C 400 mm AM B

Solution: S+ 30 (cos 45°)(18) = (12) - 0 F- 39.8 lb prepared by: Ahmed Raad, MSCE ENGINEERING MECHANICS STATICS Example 5: The tower crane is used to hoist the 2-Mg load upward at constant velocity. The 1.5-Mg jib BD, 0.5-Mg jib BC, and 6-Mg counterweight C have centers of mass at GI, G2, and G3, respectively. Determine the resultant moment produced by the load and the weights of the tower crane jibs a bout point A and about point B 4 m 9.5m G, B G3F7.5 m G 12.5 m 23 m A Solution: Since the moment arms of the weights and the load measured to points A and B are the same, the resultant moments produced by the load and the weight about points A and B are the same.
