Concept explainers
A 250-N force is applied to the foot-operated air pump. The return spring S exerts a 3-N• m moment on member OBA for this position. Determine the corresponding compression force C in the cylinder BD. If the diameter of the piston in the cylinder is 45 mm, estimate the air pressure generated for these conditions. State any assumptions.

- 100 As a spring is heated, its spring constant decreases. Suppose the spring is heated and then cooled so that the spring constant at time t is k(t) = t sin + N/m. If the mass-spring system has mass m = 2 kg and a damping constant b = 1 N-sec/m with initial conditions x(0) = 6 m and x'(0) = -5 m/sec and it is subjected to the harmonic external force f (t) = 100 cos 3t N.
