Problem 4.
A homogeneous disk with radius and mass m is mounted on an axle OG with length L and a
negligible mass. The axle is pivoted at the fixed-point O, and the disk is constrained to roll on a
horizontal surface. The disk rotates counterclockwise at the constant rate o₁ about the axle. (mg
must be included into your calculation)
(a). Calculate the linear velocity of G and indicate it on the figure.
(b). Calculate ₂ (constant), which is the angular velocity of the
axle OG around the vertical axis.
(c). Calculate the linear acceleration ā of G and indicate it on the
figure.
(d). Determine the force (assumed vertical) exerted by the floor on
the disk
(e). Determine the reaction at the pivot O.
