Explanation Given information: The three sphere A , B , C each having mass is m . Calculation: Consider x is a distance between A and C . Calculate the horizontal distance ( x ) as shown below. l 2 = x 2 + ( l 3 ) 2 x 2 = l 2 − l 2 9 x 2 = 9 l 2 − l 2 9 x = 8 3 l Calculate angle θ as shown below. l sin θ = l 3 sin θ = 1 3 θ = 19.47 ° l cos θ = 8 3 l cos θ = 8 3 Sketch the velocity system as shown in Figure 1. Refer to Figure 1. Write the velocity vectors as follows: v 0 = − v 0 j v A = v A ( cos θ i − sin θ j ) v B / A = u B ( − sin θ i − cos θ j ) Express the velocity at B as follows: ( v B ) 2 = ( v A ) 2 + ( v B / A ) 2 v B = v A 2 + v B / A 2 Express the velocity at C as follows: v C = v C j Apply the conservation of momentum as follows. m v 0 = m v A + m v B / A + m v C = 2 m v A + m v B / A + m v C (1) Divided by m in Equation (1). m v 0 m = 2 m v A + m v B / A + m v C m v 0 = 2 v A + v B / A + v C (2) Substitute − v 0 j for v 0 , v A ( cos θ i − sin θ j ) for v A , v C j for v C , and u B ( cos θ i − cos θ j ) for v B / A in Equation (2). − v 0 j = 2 v A ( cos θ i − sin θ j ) + u B ( − sin θ i − cos θ j ) + v C j = v A cos θ i − v A sin θ j − u B sin θ i − u B cos θ j + v C j Resolving the components of i, j coordinates as follows: 2 v A cos θ − u B sin θ = 0 (3) v 0 = 2 v A sin θ + u B cos θ − v C (4) Solve Equation (3) and (4) as follows: v A = 1 6 ( v 0 + v C ) u B = 0.94281 ( v 0 + v C ) Find the velocity of sphere C using conservation of energy as follows: 1 2 m v 0 2 = 1 2 m v A 2 + 1 2 m v B 2 + 1 2 m v C 2 = 1 2 m v A 2 + 1 2 m ( v A 2 + u B 2 ) + 1 2 m v C 2 (5) Divided by 1 2 m in Equation (5)

Strain energy

The term strain indicates the variation in an object's length, area, and volume when the object is subjected to an external force. The external force may be of normal, shear, moment, torque, etc. The strain in an object depends on the types of external f…

A crate weighs 530 lb and is hung by three ropes attached to a steel ring at A such that the top surface is parallel to the xy plane. Point A is located at a height of h = 42 in above the top of the crate directly over the geometric center of the top surface. Use the dimensions given in the table below to determine the tension in each of the three ropes. 2013 Michael Swanbom cc00 BY NC SA ↑ Z C b B У a D Values for dimensions on the figure are given in the following table. Note the figure may not be to scale. Variable Value a 30 in b 43 in 4.5 in The tension in rope AB is 383 x lb The tension in rope AC is 156 x lb The tension in rope AD is 156 x lb

A block of mass m hangs from the end of bar AB that is 7.2 meters long and connected to the wall in the xz plane. The bar is supported at A by a ball joint such that it carries only a compressive force along its axis. The bar is supported at end B by cables BD and BC that connect to the xz plane at points C and D respectively with coordinates given in the figure. Cable BD is elastic and can be modeled as a linear spring with a spring constant k = 400 N/m and unstretched length of 6.34 meters. Determine the mass m, the compressive force in beam AB and the tension force in cable BC.
