A 2500-kg satellite is 2.4 m high and has octagonal bases of sides 1.2 m. The coordinate axes shown are the principal centroidal axes of inertia of the satellite, and its radii of gyration are kx = kz= 0.90 m and ky = 0.98 m. The satellite is equipped with a main 500-N thruster E and four 20-N thrusters A, B, C, and D, that can expel fuel in the positive y direction. The satellite is spinning at the rate of 36 rev/h about its axis of symmetry Gy, which maintains a fixed direction in space, when thrusters A and B are activated for 2 s. Determine (a) the precession axis of the satellite, (b) its rate of precession, (c) its rate of spin.
A yoyo is constructed by attaching three uniform, solid disks along their central axes as shown. The two outer disks are identical, each with mass M = 58 g, radius R = 3.3 cm, and moment of inertia 1/2MR2. The central, smaller disk has mass M/2 and radius R/2. A light, flexible string of negligible mass is wrapped counterclockwise around the central disk of the yoyo. The yoyo is then placed on a horizontal tabletop and the string is gently pulled with a constant force F = 0.25 N. The tension in the string is not sufficient to cause the yoyo to leave the tabletop. In this problem consider the two cases show. In Case 1 the string is pulled straight up, perpendicular to the tabletop. In Case 2 the string is pulled horizontally, parallel to the tabletop. In both cases the yoyo rolls without slipping.
In both the cases shown what is the magnitude of the tourqe t excerted by the string about the contact point of the yo-yo wiith the table in N*m.
What is the moment of intertia of the yo-yo…
The passengers, the ship and the structure have a total mass of 73 Tons, their center of mass in G, and a radius of gyration with respect to B of kB = 3.5 m. Additionally, the 3-ton steel block at point A can be considered as a point of concentrated mass. If the ship rotates freely at 9.3 rad/s when it reaches the lowest point, as shown in the figure, determine the moment of inertia of the system about pivot B (in kgm2)
The angular acceleration for the position shown (in rad/s2) is:
The vertical reaction at pivot B (in N) is:
The horizontal reaction at pivot B (in N) is:
