Chapter 11.2, Problem 11.59P
The system shown starts from rest, and each component moves with a constant acceleration. If the relative acceleration of block C with respect to collar B is 60 mm/s2 upward and the relative acceleration of block D with respect to block A is 110 mm/s2 downward, determine (a) the velocity of block C after 3 s, (b) the change in position of block D after 5 s.

For the walking-beam mechanism shown in Figure 3, find and plot the x and y coordinates of the
position of the coupler point P for one complete revolution of the crank O2A. Use the coordinate
system shown in Figure 3. Hint: Calculate them first with respect to the ground link 0204 and
then transform them into the global XY coordinate system.

A .025 lb bullet C is fired at end B of the 15-lb slender bar AB. The
bar is initially at rest, and the initial velocity of the bullet is 1500 ft/s
as shown. Assuming that the bullet becomes embedded in the bar,
find (a) the angular velocity @2 of the bar immediately after impact,
and (b) the percentage loss of kinetic energy as a result of the impact.
(c) After the impact, does the bar swing up 90° and reach the
horizontal? If it does, what is its angular velocity at this point?
Answers: (a). @2=1.6 rad/s; (b). 99.6% loss
