PROBLEM 16.5
A uniform rod BC of mass 4 kg is connected to a collar A by a 250-mm
cord AB. Neglecting the mass of the collar and cord, determine (a) the
smallest constant acceleration a, for which the cord and the rod lie in a
straight line, (b) the corresponding tension in the cord.
Q2) 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 inc lination of the arms to the vertical is 40°.
