Disk A, of weight 5 lb and radius r = 3 in., is at rest when it is placed in contact with a belt that moves at a constant speed v = 50 ft/s. Knowing that μk = 0.20 between the disk and the belt, determine the time required for the disk to reach a constant angular velocity.
Disk A has mass mA = 4.5 kg, radius rA = 278 mm, and initial angular velocity ω0A = 300 rpm clockwise. Disk B has mass mB = 1.0 kg, radius rB = 199 mm, and is at rest when it comes into contact with disk A. Knowing that μk = 0.45 between the disks and neglecting rolling friction ,
The mechanism shown is one of two identical mechanisms attached to the two sides of a 200-lb uniform rectangular door. Edge ABC of the door is guided by wheels of negligible mass that roll in horizontal and vertical tracks. A spring with a constant of k = 40 lb/ft is attached to wheel B. Knowing that the door is released from rest in the position 0= 30° with the spring unstretched, determine the velocity of wheel A just as the door reaches the vertical position.
