- determine (a) the speed of the vehich as it approaches B on the elliptic path, (b) the amount by which its speed should be reduced as it approaches B to insert it into the smaller circular orbit.arrow_forwardThe motorcycle is traveling at a constant speed of 60 km/h. Determine the magnitude of its acceleration when it is at point A.arrow_forwardif the system is released from rest, determine the speeds and accelerations of both masses (A and B) after B has moved 2.3 m. Neglect friction and the masses of the pulleys.arrow_forward
- The ski and the rider, with a total mass of 90 kg, are moving along the curved path. Since the equation of the curvilinear path is determined as y = 0.08x2 and the speed at x = 10 m is known as 5 m / s, find the value of a) the rate of increase in the speed of the skier at this point, b) the normal force applied to skiing.arrow_forwardDynamic Lesson The ski and the rider, with a total mass of 90 kg, are moving along the curved path in the shape. Since the equation of the curvilinear path is determined as y = 0.08x2 and the speed at x = 10 m is known as 5 m / s, the skier at this pointa) The rate of increase in speed,b) Obtain the value of the Normal force applied to ski.arrow_forwardThe roller coaster car travels down the helical path at constant speed such that the parametric equiations that define its position are x = c sin kt , y = c cos kt, z= h - bt, where c, h and b are constants. Determine the magnitudes of its velocity and acceleration.arrow_forward
- A driver enters the exit ramp on a highway at a speed of 40 km/ h and immediately applies the brake so that the magnitude of the car's acceleration at point A is 1.5 m/s2. If the breaking effect remains constant during the motion, calculate the distance that the car stops on the exit ramp.arrow_forward(e) Once the mass m is released from rest, what is its speed when it has risen by a height h?arrow_forwardIf the roller coaster starts from rest at A and its speed increases at at = (6 − 0.06s) m/s2,determine the magnitude of its acceleration when it reaches B where sB = 40 m.

- b)With the radius of curvature (r) at the top of the loop (T) is 1 m. Determine the minimum speed (in m/s) of the box required at point T such that it can stay on the loop.arrow_forwardThe mass m is attached to two equal springs which have bothunstretched length of l. The mass is released from rest at point A.When the mass reaches to point B,a. Determine the velocity of the mass at point B, in terms ofthe parameters m, k, l, h.arrow_forwardThe car is traveling at a speed of 58 mi/hr as it approaches point A. Beginning at A, the car decelerates at a constant 6.1 ft/sec2 until it gets to point B, after which its constant rate of decrease of speed is 2.6 ft/sec2 as it rounds the interchange ramp. Determine the magnitude of the total car acceleration (a) just before it gets to B, (b) just after it passes B, and (c) at point C.arrow_forward
