A small 250-g collar C can slide on a semicircular rod which is made to rotate about the vertical AB at a constant rate of 7.5 rad/s. Determine the three values of 0 for which the collar will not slide on the rod, assuming no friction between the collar and the rod.
Two 2.6-lb collars A and B can slide without friction on a frame, consisting of the horizontal rod OE and the vertical rod CD, which is free to rotate about CD . The two collars are connected by a cord running over a pulley that is attached to the frame at O and a stop prevents collar B from moving. The frame is rotating at the rate 0 =12 rad/s and r= 0.6 ft when the stop is removed allowing collar A to move out along rod OE . Neglecting friction and the mass of the frame, determine, for the position r= 1.2 ft, (a) the transverse component of the velocity of collar A, (b) the tension in the cord and the acceleration of collar A relative to the rod OE.
A sphere of radius r and mass m has a linear velocity v0 directed to the left and no angular velocity as it is placed on a belt moving to the right with a constant velocity v1. If after first sliding on the belt the sphere is to have no linear velocity relative to the ground as it starts rolling on the belt without sliding, determine in terms of v1 and the coefficient of kinetic friction µk between the sphere and the belt (a) the required value of v0, (b) the time t1 at which the sphere will start rolling on the belt, (c) the distance the sphere will have moved relative to the ground at time t1.
