Concept explainers
The 40-kg gymnast drops from her maximum height of h = 0.5 m straight down to the bar as shown. Her hands hit the bar and clasp it, and her body remains straight in the position shown. Her center of mass is 0.75 meters away from her hands, and her mass moment of inertia about her center of mass is 7.5 kg·m2. Assuming that friction between the bar and her hands is negligible and that she remains in the same position throughout the swing, determine her angular velocity when she swings around to θ = 135°.

- A device consists of eight balls each of mass 0.7 kg attached to the ends of low-mass spokes of length 1.4 m, so the radius of rotation of the balls is 0.7 m. The device is mounted in the vertical plane. The axle is held up by supports that are not shown, and the wheel is free to rotate on the nearly frictionless axle. A lump of clay with mass 0.35 kg falls and sticks to one of the balls at the location shown, when the spoke attached to that ball is at 45 degrees to the horizontal. Just before the impact the clay has a speed 5 m/s, and the wheel is rotating counterclockwise with angular speed 0.26 radians/s.Just before the impact, what is the angular momentum of the combined system of device plus clay about the center C? (As usual, x is to the right, y is up, and z is out of the screen, toward you.)arrow_forwardPlease asaparrow_forwardBlock A rests on a horizontal tabletop. A light horizontal rope is attached to it and passes over a pulley, and block B is suspended from the free end of the rope. The light rope that connects the two blocks does not slip over the surface of the pulley (radius 0.080 m) because the pulley rotates on a frictionless axle. The horizontal surface on which block A (mass 2.50 kg) moves is frictionless. The system is released from rest, and block B (mass 5.00 kg) moves downward 1.80 m in 2.00 s. A)What is the tension force that the rope exerts on block B ?B)What is the tension force that the rope exerts on block A ?arrow_forward
- Solve the problem correctlyarrow_forwardIn a porter governor the mass of the central load is 18 kgand the mass of each ball is 2kg. the top arms (254) mm while the bottom arms are (304) mm long. The friction of the sleeve is 20 N. If the top arms make 45 deg with the axis of rotation in the equilibrium position, find the range of the speed of the governor in that positionarrow_forward. A single cylinder engine runs at 250 r.p.m. and has a stroke of 180 mm. The reciprocating parts has a mass of 120 kg and the revolving parts are equivalent to a mass of 70 kg at a radius of 90 mm. A mass is placed opposite to the crank at a radius of 150 mm to balance the whole of the revolving mass and two-thirds of the reciprocating mass. Determine the magnitude of the balancing mass and the resultant residual unbalance force when the crank has turned 30° from the inner dead centre, neglect the obliquity of the connecting rod.arrow_forward
- A 3 m long steel rod with a mass of 5000 (kg) is lifted from its ends in balance with a 6 m long sling. Calculate the force that will come to the chain at that moment as a result of the sudden disconnection of the blue choke rope. (Note, accept the blue ropes at the very end of the bar. Each chain is connected as 3 meters.)arrow_forward1. A cart is being pulled by a motor. The cart has a mass of m = 200 kg. The motor applies a horizontal force of F = 800 N to the center of the right side of the cart. The cart is 1m tall, the total length is 1.5m, the wheels are 1m apart from each other, and the center of mass G is 0.4 m above the floor and on the horizontal center. Ignore friction. If there is no rotational movement of the cart, determine the following: 1. The cart's acceleration 2. The reaction (normal) force at the front pair of wheels. 3. The reaction (normal) force at the rear pair of wheels.

- In the system shown, the mass at A is 10 kg and that at B is 5 kg. The mass-moment of inertia of the pulley about point C is 8 kg.m2. At the instant shown, mass A is moving downwards at 5.3 m/s. Find the total kinetic energy of the system. Neglect friction. Write your answer in Joules but do not write the units. 0.15 m B 0.1 m A Answer: Tavlor Te a mnarrow_forwardA couple of figure skaters are executing a move called the "death spiral" as shown in the image below. The male skater on the left is swinging his partner around him on the ice and we can assume that he is rotating without translating. The coefficient of friction between the female's skates and the ice is 0.02. The male skater is applying a constant moment of 8 lb-ft about the axis of rotation to keep the spin going. If the couple is initially spinning at 5 rad/s, calculate their final angular velocity after 6 seconds. Simplify this problem and treat the female as a 140 lb particle that is spinning 6' from the axis of rotation only in the horizontal plane. For full credit, draw an FBD and clearly define your system using polar coordinates. 8 lb-ft Axis of Rotation 6 ft 11:38 AM Type here to search 58°F Partly sunny 3/30/г022arrow_forwardCan the uniform bar of weight W remain at rest in the position shown?arrow_forward
