- The 1.9-kg slider is released from rest in position A and slides without friction along the vertical-plane guide. Determine the normal force exerted by the guide on the slider (a) just before it passes point C, (b) just after it passes point C, and (c) just before it passes point E. The normal forces are positive if they point up and/or to the left, negative if they point down and/or to the right.arrow_forwardIf the ball has a mass of 40 kg and a speed of 5 m/s at the instant it is at the lowest point (θ (angle) = 0o), (a) determine the tension in the cord at this instant. (b) Also, when θ= 30o, determine the tension in the cord.arrow_forward14-76. The 4-kg smooth collar has a speed of 3 m/ s when it is at s = 0. Determine the maximum distance s it travels before it stops momentarily. The spring has an unstretched length of l marrow_forward
- The winding drum D is drawing in the cable at an accelerated rate of 4.5 m/s^2. Determine the cable tension if the suspended crate has a mass of 1000 kg.arrow_forward. The 2.5-Mg four-wheel-drive SUV tows the 1.5-Mg trailer. The traction force developed at the wheels is FD = 9 kN. Determine the speed of the truck in 20 s, starting from rest. Also, determine the tension developed in the coupling, A, between the SUV and the trailer. Neglect the mass of the wheelarrow_forwardWhen the 5 kg block is 6 m from the wall, it is sliding at v1=14 m/s. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal plane is µk=0.3, determine the impulse of the wall on the block necessary to stop the block. Neglect the friction impulse action on the block during the collison.arrow_forward
- The van is traveling at 20 km/h when the coupling of the trailer at A fails. If the trailer has a mass of 300 kg and coasts 50 m before coming to rest, determine the constant horizontal force F created by rolling friction which causes the trailer to stop.arrow_forwardA roller coaster car has a mass of 600 kg when fully loaded with passengers. If the car has a speed of 20 m/sec at point A, what is the maximum speed the car can have at B and still remain on the track?arrow_forwardThe 4-kg box slides on the smooth surface and has a velocity of 15 m/s. If it strikes the smooth plate, which has a weight of 2 kg and is held in position by an unstretched spring of stiffness k = 600 N/m, determine the maximum compression imparted to the spring. Take e = 0.7 between the box and the plate.arrow_forward
- If the 40 kg skier passes point A with a speed of 2 m/s, determine his speed when he reaches point B. Also find the normal force exerted on him by the slope at this point. Neglect friction.arrow_forwardThe roller coaster car has a mass of 700 kg, including its passenger. If it starts from the top of the hill A with a speed v A = 3 m/s, determine the minimum height h of the hill crest so that the car travels around the inside loops without leaving the track. Neglect friction, the mass of the wheels, and the size of the car. What is the normal reaction on the car when the car is at B1. find the Max g-force on passenger, bank angle2. the force required to slow down the motion and the time the force is applied must be determined to bring the coaster to rest.3. The maximum G-load experienced by a person should be no more than 5 garrow_forwardThe free-rolling ramp has a weight of 120 lb. The crate whose weight is 80 lb slides from rest at A, 15 ft downward the ramp to B. Determine the distance the ramp moves when the crate slides to point B. Neglect the weights of the wheels.arrow_forward
