Ball B is suspended from a cord of length l attached to cartel, which can roll freely on a frictionless. horizontal track. The ball and the cart have the same mass m. If the cart is given an initial horizontal velocity v0 while the ball is at rest, describe the subsequent motion of the system, specifying the velocities of A and B for the following successive values of the angle

- The collar has a mass of 2 kg and is attached to the light spring, which has a stiffness of 30 N∕m and an unstretched length of 1.5 m. The collar is released from rest at A and slides up the smooth rod under the action of the constant 50-N force. Calculate the velocity v of the collar as it passes position B. Usearrow_forwardThe "flying car" is a ride at an amusement park which consists of a car having wheels that roll along a track mounted inside a rotating drum. By design the car cannot fall off the track, however motion of the car is developed by applying the car's brake, thereby gripping the car to the track and allowing it to move with a constant speed of the track, vt = 3 m/s. The rider applies the brake when going from B to A and then releases it at the top of the drum, A, so that the car coasts freely down along the track to B (0 = π rad). Neglect friction during the motion from A to B. The rider and car have a total mass of 390 kg and the center of mass of the car and rider moves along a circular path having a radius of R = 9.8 m. (Figure 1) Figure R Barrow_forwardThe system is released from rest in the position shown. Calculate the tension T in the cord and the acceleration a (positive if to the right, negative if to the left) of the 30-kg block. The small pulley attached to the block has negligible mass and friction.

Determine the normal force on his snowboard and the magnitude of his total acceleration at the instant depicted. Use a value HK = 0.07 for the coefficient of kinetic friction between the snowboard and the surface. Neglect the weight of the snowboard and assume that the mass center G of the snowboarder is 2.2 feet from the surface of the snow. 40° G Answers N = a = 22' lb ft/sec²arrow_forwardIV. For the following system that starts from rest, the spool has a weight of 300 N and a radius of gyration ke = 0.3 m, and block A is attached to it as shown of weight 200 N. A constant horizontal force F is applied to the cord in order to give the block an upward speed of 5 m/s. (Neglect mass of cord and tension force). -F 1. Draw the free body diagram of the system. 2.

The weight of the monkey is balanced by the M-mass banana heap at the other end of the rope; the monkey and the banana heap are both Immobile. Find the acceleration of the banana heap relative to the monkey when the monkey starts climbing the rope to access the banana (neglect the friction on the reel.
