Answer to Problem 10.100P

The range of values of P for which the equilibrium position is stable is P<10lb_.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The system is in equilibrium when θ1=θ2=0.

The value of spring constant is k=20lb/in..

The radius of the drums is r=3in..

The length of the rods AB and CD is l=6in..

The weight acting at point A is W=15lb.

Calculation:

Show the free-body diagram of the arrangement as in Figure 1.

Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics, 11th Edition, Chapter 10.2, Problem 10.100P

Consider the movement of spring at left end is from a to b, and the right end is from a to b.

Find the elongation of the spring (s) using the relation.

s=abab=rθ1rθ2=r(θ1θ2)

Find the potential energy (V) using the relation.

V=Vg+Vs=12ks2+Plcosθ1Wlcosθ2=12kr2(θ1θ2)2+Plcosθ1Wlcosθ2 (1)

Here, the spring constant is k.

Differentiate the Equation (1) with respect to θ1.

Vθ1=2×12kr2(θ1θ2)Plsinθ10=kr2(θ1θ2)Plsinθ1 (2)

Differentiate the Equation (2) with respect to θ1.

2Vθ12=kr2Plcosθ1

Differentiate the equation (2) with θ2 to find the derivative of 2Vθ1θ2.

2Vθ1θ2=kr2

Differentiate the Equation (1) with respect to θ2.

Vθ2=2×12kr2(θ1θ2)+0Wlsinθ2=kr2(θ1θ2)Wlsinθ2 (3)

Differentiate the Equation (3) with respect to θ2.

2Vθ22=kr2+Wlcosθ2

Condition 1:

When the equilibrium is stable, θ1=θ2=0.

Substitute 0 for θ1 and 0 for θ2 in Equation (2).

Vθ1=kr2(00)Plsin0=0

Substitute 0 for θ1 and 0 for θ2 in Equation (3).

Vθ2=kr2(00)Wlsin0=0

Vθ1=Vθ2=0

The condition is satisfied. The equilibrium is stable.

Condition 2:

Check the condition,

(2Vθ1θ2)22Vθ122Vθ22<0

Substitute kr2 for 2Vθ1θ2, (kr2Plcosθ1) for 2Vθ12, and (kr2+Wlcosθ2) for 2Vθ22.

(kr2)2(kr2Plcosθ1)(kr2+Wlcosθ2)<0

Substitute 0 for θ1 and 0 for θ2.

(kr2)2(kr2Plcos0°)(kr2+Wlcos0°)<0(kr2)2(kr2Pl)(kr2+Wl)<0k2r4k2r4kr2Wl+kr2Pl+PWl2<0kr2W+P(kr2+Wl)<0

P<kr2W(kr2+Wl)P<kr2l(W(kr2l+W)) (4)

Condition 3:

2Vθ12>0kr2Plcosθ1>0

Substitute 0 for θ1.

kr2Plcos0°>0P<kr2l

Refer to all the conditions,

The minimum value of P is 0.

The maximum value of P is Pmax<kr2l(W(kr2l+W)).

Substitute 20lb/in. for k, 6 in. for l, 15 lb for W, and 3 in. for r in Equation (4).

P<20×326(15(20×326+15))<20×96(1545)<10lb

Therefore, the range of values of P for which the equilibrium position is stable is P<10lb_.

Answer to Problem 10.100P

The range of values of P for which the equilibrium position is stable is P<20lb_.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The system is in equilibrium when θ1=θ2=0.

The value of spring constant is k=20lb/in..

The radius of the drums is r=3in..

The length of the rods AB and CD is l=6in..

The weight acting at point A is W=60lb.

Calculation:

Substitute 20lb/in. for k, 6 in. for l, 60 lb for W, and 3 in. for r in Equation (4).

P<20×326(60(20×326+60))<20×96(6090)<20lb

Therefore, the range of values of P for which the equilibrium position is stable is P<20lb_.
