Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, whe…

Chapter 11, Problem 84GP

BIO Deltoid Muscle A crossing guard holds a STOP sign at arm’s length, as shown in Figure 11-63. Her arm is horizontal, and we assume that the deltoid muscle is the only muscle supporting her arm The weight of her upper arm is W_u = 18 N, the weight of her lower arm is W₁ = 11 N, the weight of her hand is W_h = 4.0 N, and the weight of the sign is W_s = 8.9 N. The location where each of these forces acts on the arm is indicated in the figure A force of magnitude f_d is exerted on the humerus by the deltoid, and the shoulder joint exerts a force on the humerus with horizontal and vertical components given by f_x and f_y respectively. (a) Is the magnitude of f_x greater than less than or equal to the magnitude off_x? Explain. Find (b) f_d, (c) f_x and (d) f_y (The weights in Figure 11-63 are drawn to scale; the unknown forces are to be determined. If a force is found to be negative, its direction is opposite to that shown )

A planar double pendulum consists of two point masses \[m_1 = 1.00~\mathrm{kg}, \qquad m_2 = 1.00~\mathrm{kg}\]connected by massless, rigid rods of lengths \[L_1 = 1.00~\mathrm{m}, \qquad L_2 = 1.20~\mathrm{m}.\]The upper rod is hinged to a fixed pivot; gravity acts vertically downward with\[g = 9.81~\mathrm{m\,s^{-2}}.\]Define the generalized coordinates \(\theta_1,\theta_2\) as the angles each rod makes with thedownward vertical (positive anticlockwise, measured in radians unless stated otherwise).At \(t=0\) the system is released from rest with \[\theta_1(0)=120^{\circ}, \qquad\theta_2(0)=-10^{\circ}, \qquad\dot{\theta}_1(0)=\dot{\theta}_2(0)=0 .\]Using the exact nonlinear equations of motion (no small-angle or planar-pendulumapproximations) and assuming the rods never stretch or slip, determine the angle\(\theta_2\) at the instant\[t = 10.0~\mathrm{s}.\]Give the result in degrees, in the interval \((-180^{\circ},180^{\circ}]\).
