A particle, of mass 9 kg, is attached to two identical springs. The other ends of the springs are attached to fixed points, A and B, which are 1.2 metres apart on a smooth horizontal surface. The springs have modulus of elasticity 45 N and natural length 0.4 m. The particle is released from rest at a distance of 0.5 metres from B and moves on the line AB. The midpoint of AB is C.

A sliding bushing C, of mass m = 2.7 kg, with a fixed spring, moves from A to B along the fixed bar. Assume that C has a velocity of 1.8 m / s in A and that the constant spring elastic is k = 13.6 N / m. Also considers the length of the spring without being compressed or stretched to be 0.9 m. Calculate the speed of the bushing at point B. ( g = 9.8 m/s2)
A 1.6-kg tube AB can slide freely on rod DE which in turn can rotate freely in a horizontal plane. Initially the assembly is rotating with an angular velocity of magnitude w = 5 rad/s and the tube is held in position by a cord. The moment of inertia of the rod and bracket about the vertical axis of rotation is 0.30 kg.m2 and the centroidal moment of inertia of the tube about a vertical axis is 0.0025 kg.m2If the cord suddenly breaks, determine (a) the angular velocity of the assembly after the tube has moved to end E, (b) the energy lost during the plastic impact at E.
A particle M1, weighing 2.4 Ibs, is tied to a thread and describes a circular path in a horizontal plane. The thread, of negligible mass, passes through a hole in the center of the circle and descends vertically. Another particle M2 is attached, weighing 5.0 Ibs, as shown in the figure. If M1 describes a uniform circular motion, with angular velocity w 3.1 rad/s, determine the radius R of the circumference in inches.
A Proell governor has arms of 300 mm length. The upper arms are hinged on the axis of rotation, whereas the lower arms are pivoted at a distance of 35 mm from the axis of rotation. The extension of lower arms to which the balls are attached are 100 mm long. The mass of each ball is 8 kg and the mass on the sleeve is 60 kg. At the minimum radius of rotation of 200 mm, the extensions are parallel to the governor axis. Determine the equilibrium speed of the governor for the given configuration. What will be the equilibrium speed for the maximum radius of 250 mm?
In the system shown, a 150 N collar-pulley assembly slides on a horizontal shaft with coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.10 between the collar and the shaft, and is acted upon by a force P with a magnitude of P = 303.887 N at an angle θ = 35.38° as shown. Knowing that the assembly is initially at rest, what is the time when the velocity reaches to 3 m/s? what is the velocity of collar ? after 3 seconds? Also, at this instant, find the tension in the cord and the velocity of block A.
A ball of mass M is suspended from a vertical rod by two cables. The system rotates around this rod axis at angular velocity w. Assuming that the tensile strength of the upper cable is 2 times the tension of the lower cable. Draw a free body diagram for this ball
Two beads of mass m are initially at rest at the top of a frictionless hoop of mass M and radius R, which stands vertically on the ground. The beads, being strung on the hoop, are constrained to move along the hoop’s circular path. The beads are given tiny kicks, and they slide down the hoop, one to the right and one to the left. What is the largest value of m/M for which the hoop never rises up off the ground? (Given a sufficiently large ratio of m/M the normal force of the beads on the hoop can indeed cause it to jump off of the ground!) Some thoughts/hints about this problem:(a) It is important to think about the direction of the Normal force as the beads move around the hoop. The hoop is exerting a normal force on the beads which are constraining them to stay on the wire as they move around the hoop. The beads are also exerting a normal force on the hoop which is what will make the hoop jump.(b) What happens to the direction of the normal force exerted by the hoop on the beads as…

we have a non-rotating space station in the shape of a long thin uniform rod of mass 2.95 x 10^6 kg and length 710 meters. Small probes of mass 5178 kg are periodically launched in pairs from two points on the rod-shaped part of the station as shown, launching at a speed of 4318 m/s with respect to the launch points, which are each located 199 m from the center of the rod. After 17 pairs of probes have launched, how fast will the station be spinning? a. 16.32 rpm b. 4.90 rpm c. 11.66 rpm d. 8.16 rpm
A cyclist is riding a bicycle at a speed of 20 mph on a horizontal road. The distance between the axles is 42 in., and the mass center of the cyclist and the bicycle is located 26 in. behind the front axle and 40 in. above the ground. If the cyclist applies the brakes only on the front wheel, determine the shortest distance in which he can stop without being thrown over the front wheel.
Ends of three light identical rods each of length l are connected to a light pivot that enables them to rotate in any direction. At the other ends of the rods, three particles A, B and C of masses m, 2m and 3m respectively are affixed. Initially the rods are coplanar, angle between any two is 120 and the particles are at rest. Now the particle C is given a velocity u perpendicular to the rod connected to it and in the plane of the rods as shown in the figure. Ignore gravitational interaction between the particles. What are the moduli of acceleration of the particles A, B and C immediately after the particle C is given velocity u?
