Question
DYNAMICS OF RIGID BODIES PROBLEM:
In a amusement park ride, gondola cars of weight W are attached by rods 24ft long to a bull wheel 20ft in diameter. The bull wheel rotates in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis at its center. At how many rpm is it rotating when the supporting rods of the gondolas are inclined at 30° with the vertical? Consider each gondola to be a particle concentrated at the end of each 24ft rod.

- Description of Situation A rope is tied to a bucket that is half-filled with peas. After discussing the importance of whirled peas, a Physics teacher holds the rope and whirls the bucket of peas in a vertical circle. Identify the free-body diagram that shows the type and direction of the forces acting on the bucket of peas when it is at the top of the circular loop.arrow_forwardA grain silo is in equilibrium under the effect of a variable distributed wheat load and several forces as shown in the Figure. The silo has a gate for releasing the wheat into a rigid u-shape channel at G for dispensing the crop. The channel is connected to the silo by the hinge (or pin) at G and supported externally by the hinge (or pin) H. The silo is also supported by two rigid links (or pendulums) AB and LN. The acting loads are represented by three concentric forces F = 30 kN at K, F2 = 90 kN at D, and F = 40 kN at J, and a couple M = 300 kNm (clockwise) at C. The distributed load effect of the wheat is vertical acting between points C and G of the silo. The distributed load has a magnitude equal to wi = 250 kN/m between points C and E and decreases linearly to w2 = 80 kN/m when it reaches point G due to the releasing effect of the gate. The angles of forces F2 and F, with the horizontal line are 40° and 20°, respectively. F is horizontal. Do the following: 1.

If it is originally at rest, determine the distance it slides in order to attain a speed of 3.5. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the surface is μ k= 0.24.arrow_forward
