- The two balls are attached to the light rigid rod, which is suspended by a cord from the support above it. If the balls and rod, initially at rest, are struck with the force F = 10.7 lb, calculate the magnitudes of the corresponding acceleration a of the mass center and the rate θ¨ at which the angular velocity of the bar is changing.arrow_forwardThe vertical bar AB has a mass of 150 kg with center of mass G midway between the ends. The bar is elevated from rest at θ = 0 by means of the parallel links of negligible mass, with a constant couple M = 5 kN∙m applied to the lower link at C. Determine the angular acceleration α of the links as a function of θ and find the force B in the link DB at the instant when θ = 30°.arrow_forwardA homogeneous 150-kg vertical bar AB is raised from rest at θ = 0° by means of the parallel swinging bars of negligible weight, with a constant moment M = 5 kN-m applied to the lower link at C.
