Concept explainers
Two identical slender rods AB and BC are welded together to form an L-shaped assembly. The assembly is pressed against a spring at D and released from the position shown. Knowing that the maximum angle of rotation of the assembly in its subsequent motion is 90° counterclockwise, determine the magnitude of the angular velocity of the assembly as it passes through the position where rod AB forms an angle of 30° with the horizontal.

Assume that kinetic friction in the bearings of gears A, B C produces couples of constant magnitude 0.15 N.m, 0.15 N.m, 0.3 N.m, respectively. Knowing that the initial angular velocity of gear C is 2000 rpm, determine the time required for the system to come to rest.arrow_forwardA semicircular panel with a radius r is attached with hinges to a circular plate with a radius r and initially is held in the vertical position as shown. The plate and the panel are made of the same material and have the same thickness. Knowing that the entire assembly is rotating freely with an initial angular velocity of w0 , determine the angular velocity of the assembly after the panel has been released and comes to rest against the plate.arrow_forward
