Example: A smooth 2-kg collar C, shown in Fig. a, is attached to a spring having a stiffness k =
3 N/m and an unstretched length of 0.75 m. If the collar is released from rest at A, determine its
acceleration and the normal force of the rod on the collar at the instant y = 1 m.
Solution
Example: The 100-kg block A shown in Fig. a is released from rest. If the masses of the pulleys
and the cord are neglected, determine the speed of the 20-kg block B in 2 s.
Solution
Kinematics
Example: The smooth 0.5-kg double-collar in Fig. 13-19a can freely slide on arm AB and
the circular guide rod. If the arm rotates with a constant angular velocity of 8 = 3 rad/s,
determine the force the arm exerts on the collar at the instant Ɵ = 45°. Motion is in the
horizontal plane.
Example: The smooth 2-kg cylinder C in Fig.a, has a pin P through its center which passes
through the slot in arm OA. If the arm is forced to rotate in the vertical plane at a constant rate
Ɵ’ = 0.5 rad/s, determine the force that the arm exerts on the peg at the instant Ɵ = 60°.
