k = 8 lb/ft
Datum
at C allows the spring to remain vertical as the rod falls.
B
A
The length of the unstretched spring is 0.85 ft. If the
body is released from rest and rotates CW about point B,
1 ft
3 ft
determine the following: (Assume the datum at point B)
0.25 ft
1. The potential energy of the spring when the body is horizontal.
2. The potential energy due to gravity when the body is horizontal.
3. The potential energy of the spring when the body is vertical.
4. The potential energy due to gravity when the body is vertical.
5. The angular velocity at the instant the body becomes vertical.
