Chapter 12, Problem 98GP
(III) Two springs, attached by a rope, are connected as shown in Fig. 12–103. The length AB is 4.0 m and AC = BC. The spring constant of each spring is k = 20.0 N/m. A force F acts downward at C on the rope. Graph θ as a function of F from θ = 0 to 75°, assuming the springs are unstretched at θ = 0.

A child is sitting in the loop with the rope hanging vertically when the child’s father pulls on the child with a horizontal force and displaces the child to one side. Just before the child is released from rest, the rope makes an angle of 15 with the vertical and the tension in the rope is 280 N. (a) How much does the child weigh? (b) What is the magnitude of the (horizontal) force of the father on the child just before the child is released?

The uniform garage door has a mass of 150 kg and is guided along smooth tracks at its ends. Lifting is done using the two springs, each of which is attached to the anchor bracket at A and to the counterbalance shaft at B and C. As the door is raised, the springs begin to unwind from the shaft, thereby assisting the lift. If each spring provides a torsional moment of M= (0.70) N - m, where 6 is in radians, determine the angle 6, at which both the left- wound and right-wound spring should be attached so that the door is completely balanced by the springs, i.e., when the door is in the vertical position and is given a slight force upward, the springs will lift the door along the side tracks to the horizontal plane with no final angular velocity. Note: The elastic potential energy of a torsional spring is V. =ko², where M = k® and in this case k = 0.7 N - m/rad.arrow_forward
