(a) Explanation Given Information: The mass ( m ) of the block is 50 kg. The amplitude ( x m ) of the resulting motion is 60 mm. The spring constant ( k 1 ) of top spring is 24 kN/m . The spring constant ( k 2 ) of bottom spring at left is 12 kN/m . The spring constant ( k 3 ) of bottom spring at right is 12 kN/m . Calculation: Show the free body diagram of the spring arrangement as in Figure (1): Springs are connected in parallel, thus the deflection in each spring is equal. δ 1 = δ 2 = δ 3 = δ Springs are connected in parallel, thus the load on the entire spring mass system is the sum of loads in each spring. Express the load on the entire spring mass system: P = P 1 + P 2 + P 3 (1) Here, the load on the entire spring mass system is P and loads on individual springs are P 1 , P 2 and P 3 . The load on a spring is the product of its spring constant and the deflection. Rewrite the Equation (1) for total load: P = P 1 + P 2 + P 3 k δ = k 1 δ 1 + k 2 δ 2 + k 3 δ 3 (2) Substitute δ 1 = δ 2 = δ 3 = δ in Equation (2). k δ = k 1 δ + k 2 δ + k 3 δ k = k 1 + k 2 + k 3 Substitute 24 kN/m for k 1 , and 12 kN/m for k 2 and k 3 (b) To determine The maximum velocity ( v m ) and acceleration ( a m ) of the block.

Y F1 α В X F2 You and your friends are planning to move the log. The log. needs to be moved straight in the x-axis direction and it takes a combined force of 2.9 kN. You (F1) are able to exert 610 N at a = 32°. What magnitude (F2) and direction (B) do you needs your friends to pull? Your friends had to pull at: magnitude in Newton, F2 = direction in degrees, ẞ = N deg

Problem 1 8 in. in. PROBLEM 15.109 Knowing that at the instant shown crank BC has a constant angular velocity of 45 rpm clockwise, determine the acceleration (a) of Point A, (b) of Point D. 8 in. Answer: convert rpm to rad/sec first. (a). -51.2j in/s²; (b). 176.6 i + 50.8 j in/s²

Problem 4 The semicircular disk has a radius of 0.4 m. At one instant, when 0-60°, it is rotating counterclockwise at 0-4 rad/s, which is increasing in the same direction at 1 rad/s². Find the velocity and acceleration of point B at this instant. (Suggestion: Set up relative velocity and relative acceleration that way you would for a no-slip disk; remember what I told you to memorize on the first day of class.)
