In the accompanying diagram, spring A is a linear spring and spring B is a hard spring, with characteristics that are described by the relationship F = kxn . Determine the stiffness coefficient k for each spring. What is the exponent n for the hard spring? In your own words, also explain the relationship between the spring force and the deflection for the hard spring and how it differs from the behavior of the linear spring.
Using the figure shown below, determine the moment of inertia with respect to the reference X and Y axis.
Figure shows a slender uniform rod with mass M and length L. It might be a baton held by a twirler in a marching band (without the rubber end caps). (a) Use integration to compute its moment of inertia about an axis through O, at an arbitrary distance h from one end. (b) Initially the rod is at rest. It is given a constant angular acceleration of magnitude a around the axis through O. Find how much work is done on the rod in a time t. (c) At time t, what is the linear acceleration of the point on the rod farthest from the axis?
