Chapter 12.1, Problem 12.43P
As part of an outdoor display, a 5-kg model C of the earth is attached to wires AC and BC and revolves at a constant speed v in the horizontal circle shown. Determine the range of the allowable values of v if both wires are to remain taut and if the tension in either of the wires is not to exceed 116 N.

The crate/box shown has a square shape, an in-plane size of 10 ft X 10 ft and a uniformly
distributed 300 lb weight. It is hung on an overhead roller conveyer and being transported.
The crate is at rest when a horizontal force P of 40 lb is applied at the point E, which is 4 ft
above the bottom of the box. Knowing that the crate starts to move from rest and at the
instant t it reaches a speed of 9.3 ft/s. Neglect the frictions at the hinges A and B and
between the rollers and the rail track. Answer the following questions:
a) Draw FBD and KD of the box.
b) What kind of motion the crate is moving in?
c) Write out the motion equations.
d) Find the acceleration at the crate's mass
center and the pin forces at A and B.

A thin circular rod is supported in a vertical plane by a bracket at A. Attached to the bracket and loosely wound around the rod is a spring of constant k= 3 lb/ft and undeformed length equal to the arc of circle AB. An 8-oz collar C , not attached to the spring, can slide without friction along the rod. Knowing that the collar is released from rest at an angle 0 with the vertical, determine (a) the smallest value of 0 for which the collar will pass through D and reach point A, (b) the velocity of the collar as it reaches point A.
Two wires AC and BC are tied at C to a sphere that revolves at a constant speed v in the horizontal circle shown. Determine the range of the allowable values of v if both wires are to remain taut and if the tension in either of the wires is not to exceed 60 N.

The motion of the 0.5-lb collar B is defined by the relations r = 10 + 6 coSn t and e = 1 (4t? – 8t), where r is expressed in inches, t in seconds, and 0 in radians. Determine the radial and transverse components of the force exerted on the collar when (a) t= 0, (b) t = 0.5 s. Barrow_forwardQ2) A loaded Porter governor has four links each 200 mm long and are hinged at a distance of 40 mm from the axis of rotation. The mass of each ball is 2 kg and mass of the sleeve is 20 kg. The governor sleeve begins to rise at 300 r.p.m. when the links are at an angle of 35° to the vertical. Assuming the friction force to be constant, determine the minimum and maximum speed of rotation when the inclination of the arms to the vertical is 40°.arrow_forward12.92 Two 2.6-lb collars A and B can slide without friction on a frame, con- sisting of the horizontal rod OE and the vertical rod CD, which is free to rotate about CD. The two collars are connected by a cord running over a pulley that is attached to the frame at O, and a stop prevents collar B from moving. The frame is rotating at the rate 0 = 12 rad/s and r = 0.6 ft when the stop is removed, allowing collar A to move out along rod OE. Neglecting friction and the mass of the frame, deter- mine, for the position r = 1.2 ft, (a) the transverse component of the velocity of collar A, (b) the tension in the cord and the acceleration of collar A relative to the rod OE.
