To determine

The unstretched length of spring DB.

Answer to Problem 19P

The unstretched length (l0) of spring DB is 2.03m_.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The stiffness of the spring is 180N/m.

The mass of a crate is 40 kg.

Assumption:

Consider the point E in between the points B and C.

Show the free body diagram of the spring as in Figure 1.

Determine the length of the member CD using the formula.

lCD=lDE2+lCE2 (I)

Here, the length of the point DE is lDE and the length of the point CE is lCE.

Determine the length of the spring BD using the formula.

lBD=lDE2+lBE2 (II)

Here, the length of the point BE is lBE.

Determine the weight of the crate.

W=mg (III)

Here, the mass of a crate is m and the acceleration due to gravity is g.

Determine the tension force of the member BD and CD by applying the equation of equilibrium.

Along the horizontal direction:

Fx=0TBDcosθBDTCDcosθCD=0 (IV)

Here, the tension force of the member CD is TCD and the angle for the member CD is θCD.

Along the vertical direction:

Fy=0TBDsinθBD+TCDsinθCDW=0 (V)

Determine the unstretched length of the spring BD.

FBD=kBDxBD=kBD(lBDl0) (VI)

Here, the tension force of the spring member BD is FBD and the un-stretched length of the spring BD is l0.

Conclusion:

Substitute 2 m for lDE and 2 m for lCE in Equation (I).

lCD=22+22=22m

Substitute 2 m for lDE and 3 m for lBE in Equation (II).

lBD=22+32=13m

Determine the cosθBD value.

cosθBD=lBElBD

Substitute 3 m for lBE and 13m for lBD.

cosθBD=313

Determine the cosθCD value.

cosθCD=lCElCD

Substitute 2m for lCE and 22 m for lCD.

cosθCD=222=12

Substitute 313 for cosθBD and 12 for cosθCD in Equation (IV).

TBDcosθBDTCDcosθCD=0TBD(313)TCD(12)=0TBD(313)=TCD(12)TBD=TCD(1332) (VII)

Substitute 40 kg for m and 9.81m/s2 for g in Equation (III).

W=40×9.81=392.4kgms2×1N1kgm/s2=392.4N

Determine the sinθBD value.

sinθBD=lDElBD

Substitute 2 m for lDE and 13m for lBD.

sinθBD=213

Determine the sinθCD value.

sinθCD=lDElCD

Substitute 2 m for lDE and 22m for lCD.

sinθCD=222=12

Substitute TCD(1332) for TBD, 213 for sinθBD, 12 for sinθCD, and 392.4 N for W in Equation (V).

TCD(1332)213+TCD12392.4=0TCD(232)+TCD(12)=392.4(12)TCD(23+1)=392.4532TCD=392.4

TCD=392.4×325TCD=332.96N

Substitute 332.96 N for TCD in Equation (VII).

TBD=332.96(1332)=282.96N

Substitute 282.96 N for FBD, 13m for lBD, and 180N/m for kBD in Equation (VI).

282.96=180(13l0)282.96180=(13l0)l0=131.572l0=2.03m

Thus, the unstretched length of spring DB is 2.03m_.
