Me240+Homework 03 Problems

This document lists homework problems from an engineering mechanics dynamics textbook. It includes 6 problems dealing with concepts like rotating masses, slipping objects on inclined planes, collars sliding on bars and wires, and springs exerting forces. The problems involve calculating values like velocity, acceleration, distance, and coefficient of friction given information about masses, angles, spring constants, positions and forces. The problems are from Chapters 14 and 15 and are due on January 27, 2012.

Due: 01/27/2012

Problem 14.76 The 1-slug mass m rotates around the vertical pole in a horizontal circular path. The length of the string is L = 4 ft. Determine the magnitude of the velocity of the mass and the angle if the tension in the string is 50 lb.

Problem 14.76

Problem 14.104

Problem 15.18

Problem 14.104* A 2-kg mass rests on a flat horizontal bar. The bar begins rotating in the vertical plane about O with a constant angular acceleration of 1 rad/s2. The mass is observed to slip relative to the bar when the bar is 30 above the horizontal. What is the static coefficient of friction between the mass and the bar? Does the mass slip toward or away from O? Problem 15.18 The springs (k = 25 lb/ft) are unstretched when s = 0. The 50-lb weight is released from rest in the position s = 0. (a) When the weight has fallen 1 ft, how much work has been done on it by each spring? (b) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the weight when it has fallen 1 ft? Problem 15.42 The 4-lb collar slides down the smooth rigid wire from position 1 to position 2. When it reaches position 2, the magnitude of its velocity is 24 ft/s. What was the magnitude of its velocity at position 1?

Problem 15.59 Solve Problem 15.58 if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the 40-lb crate and the inclined surface is k = 0.2. [FYI] Problem 15.58 The 40-lb crate is released from rest on the smooth inclined surface with the spring unstretched. The spring constant is k = 8 lb/ft. (a) How far down the inclined surface does the crate slide before it stops? (b) What maximum velocity does the crate attain on its way down?

Problem 15.58/59

Problem 15.66

Problem 15.66 The 10-kg collar starts from rest at position 1 and slides along the smooth bar. The y-axis points upward. The spring constant is k = 100 N/m and the unstretched length of the spring is 2 m. What is the velocity of the collar when it reaches position 2?
