Vector Mechanics For Engineers
- A 1-kg sphere is at rest relative to a parabolic dish that rotates at a constant rate about a vertical axis. Neglecting friction and knowing that r= 1 m, determine (a) the speed v of the sphere, (b) the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the sphere on the inclined surface of the dish.arrow_forwardA small package of weight W is projected into a vertical return loop at A with a velocity v0 . The package travels without friction along a circle of radius r and is deposited on a horizontal surface at C. For each of the two loops shown, determine (a) the smallest velocity v0 for which the package will reach the horizontal surface at C, (b) the corresponding force exerted by the loop on the package as it passes point B.arrow_forwardThe subway train shown is traveling at a speed of 30 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied on the wheels of cars B and C , causing them to slide on the track, but are not applied on the wheels of car A. Knowing that the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.35 between the wheels and the track, determine (a) the distance required to bring the train to a stop, (b) the force in each coupling.arrow_forward
- Pin B has a mass m and slides along the slot in the rotating arm Oc and along the slot DE which is cut in a fixed horizontal plate. Neglecting friction and knowing that rod OC rotates at the constant rate 00. draw a FBD and KD that can be used to determine the forces P and Q exerted on pin B by rod OC and the wall of slot DE , respectively.arrow_forwardThree small spheres A, B, and C , each of mass m , are connected to a small ring D of negligible mass by means of three inextensible, inelastic cords of length I . The spheres can slide freely on a frictionless horizontal surface and are rotating initially at a speed v0 about ring D which is at rest. Suddenly the cord CD breaks. After the other two cords have again become taut, determine (C ) the speed of ring D, (b) the relative speed at which spheres A and B rotate about D , (c) the fraction of the original energy of spheres A and B that is dissipated when cords AD and BD again became taut.arrow_forwardA 4-lb collar which can slide on a frictionless vertical rod is acted upon by a force P which varies in magnitude as shown. Knowing that the collar is initially at rest, draw the impulse-momentum diagram that can be used to determine its velocity at t= 3 s.arrow_forward
- Blocks A and B have masses mA, and mB , respectively. Neglecting friction between all surfaces, draw the FBD and KD for each mass.arrow_forwardThe system shown is at rest when a constant 250-N force is applied to block A . Neglecting the masses of the pulleys and the effect of friction in the pulleys and assuming that the coefficients of friction between block A and the horizontal surface are μs = 0.25 and μk = 0.20, determine (a) the velocity of block B after block A has moved 2 m, (b) the tension in the cable.arrow_forwardThe system shown is at rest when a constant 150-N force is applied to collar B. Neglecting the effect of friction, determine (a) the time at which the velocity of collar B will be 2.5 m/s to the left, (b) the corresponding tension in the cable.arrow_forward
- A 2000-kg automobile starts from rest at point A on a 6° incline and coasts through a distance of 150 m to point B. The brakes are then applied, causing the automobile to come to a stop at point C , which is 20 m from B . Knowing that slipping is impending during the braking period and neglecting air resistance and rolling resistance, determine (a) the speed of the automobile at point B, (b) the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road.arrow_forwardA crash test is performed between a 4500 lb SUV A and a compact car B . A transducer measures the force during the impact, and the force P varies as shown. Knowing that the SUV is travelling 30 mph when it hits the car, determine the speed of the SUV immediately after the impact.arrow_forwardTwo wires AC and BC are tied at C to a sphere that revolves at a constant speed v in the horizontal circle shown. Determine the range of the allowable values of v if both wires are to remain taut and if the tension in either of the wires is not to exceed 60 N.arrow_forward
