- A 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_forwardCar A of mass 1800 kg and car B of mass 1700 kg are at rest on a 20-Mg flatcar which is also at rest. Cars A and B then accelerate and quickly reach constant speeds relative to the flatcar of 2.35 m/s and 1.175 m/s, respectively, before decelerating to a stop at the opposite end of the flatcar.

- A 30-g bullet is fired with a velocity of 480 m/s into block A , which has a mass of 5 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and cart BC is 0.50. Knowing that the cart has a mass of 4 kg and can roll freely, determine (a) the final velocity of the cart and block, (b) the final position of the block on the cart.arrow_forwardThe 20-kg block A rests on the 55-kg plate B as shown Neglecting the mass of the rope and pulley, and using the coefficients of kinetic friction indicated, determine the time needed for block A to slide 0.5 m on the plate when the system is released from rest.arrow_forwardPin 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.

When the constraints on the spring (k = 100 kN/m) are removed, the launching mechanism of the cue is triggered, and the 170-g cue ball A is launched forward. Ball A is separated from the plate when the spring becomes fully unstretched. Ball A is launched at an angle a with the horizontal, making it rebound off the cushion at an angle ß. When the cue ball A hits the initially stationary 9-ball B (ma= 160 g), the latter goes snuggly into the lower left pocket. Determine the amount of compression (mm) on the spring so that the speed of ball B is exactly 5.XYZ m/s, where XYZ is the last three digits of your student number (Ball B may bounce off the table if its velocity is> 5.XYZ m/s and may not reach the pocket if < 5.XYZ m/s). The coefficient of restitution between ball A and the cushion is 0.6 while between balls A and B is 0.95. Neglect the effect of friction and the size of the balls.arrow_forwardBlock A is released from rest and slides down the frictionless surface of B until it hits a bumper on the right end of B. block has a mass of 10 kg and object B has a mass of 30 kg and B can roll freely on the ground.
