The bar ABC is supported by three identical, ideal springs. Note that the springs are always vertical because the collars to which they are attached are free to slide on the horizontal rail. Find the angle at equilibrium if W = kL. Neglect the weight of the bar.
The weight of the uniform bar AB is W. The stiffness of the ideal spring attached to B is k, and the spring is unstretched when =80. If W=kL, the bar has three equilibrium positions in the range 0, only one of which is stable. Determine the angle at the stable equilibrium position.
The force P applied to the brake handle enables the band brake to reduce the angular speed of a rotating drum. If the tensile strength of the band is 3800 lb, find the maximum safe value of P and the corresponding braking torque acting on the drum. Assume that the drum is rotating clockwise.
The coeffient of static friction between the uniform bar AB of weight W and the ground is 0.45. Find the smallest angle and the corresponding force P that would initiate simultaneous tipping and sliding of the bar.
