Two identical 4-lb slender rods AB and BC are connected by a pin at B and by the cord AC. The assembly rotates in a vertical plane under the combined effect of gravity and a 6-lb·ft couple M applied to rod AB. Knowing that in the position shown the angular velocity of the assembly is zero, determine (a) the angular acceleration of the assembly, (b) the tension in cord AC.
A 9-in-radius cylinder of weight 18 lb rests on a 6-lb carriage. The system is at rest when a force P of magnitude 2.5 lb is applied as shown for 1.2s. Knowing that the cylinder rolls without sliding on the carriage and neglecting the mass of the wheels of the carriage, determine the resulting velocity of (a) the carriage, (b) the center of the cylinder.
A uniform rod BC of mass 4 kg is connected to a collar A by a 250-mm cord AB. Neglecting the mass of the collar and cord, determine (a) the smallest constant acceleration aA for which the cord and the rod will lie in a straight line, (b) the corresponding tension in the cord.
