Chapter 14, Problem 14.116RP
A chain of length l and mass m falls through a small hole in a plate. Initially, when y is very small, the chain is at rest. In each case shown, determine (a) the acceleration of the first link A as a function of y, (b) the velocity of the chain as the last link passes through the hole. In case 1, assume that the individual links are at rest until they fall through the hole. In case 2, assume that at any instant all links have the same speed. Ignore the effect of friction.

The 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 between block and the horizontal surface, determine (a) the velocity of block B after block A has moved 2 m, (b ) the tension in the cable.
A 750-g collar can slide along the horizontal rod shown. It is attached to an elastic cord with an undeformed length of 300 mm and a spring constant of 150 N/m. Knowing that the collar is released from rest at A and neglecting friction, determine the speed of the collar (a) at B, (b) at E.
A 0.5-kg block B slides without friction inside a slot cut in arm OA that rotates in a vertical plane. The rod has a constant angular acceleration 0= 10 rad/s2. Knowing that when 0= 45° and r= 0.8 m the velocity of the block is zero, determine at this instant, (a) the force exerted on the block by the arm, (b) the relative acceleration of the block with respect to the arm.
