Four bodies A, B, C, and D (which can be treated as particles) are attached to a shaft as shown in the figure. The masses of the bodies are 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 slug, respectively, and the distances from the axis of the shaft to their mass centers are 1.50, 2.50, 2.00, and 1.25 ft, respectively. Find the mass center for the four bodies.

Problem 8: Inputs: ● FA = 125 lb FB = 75 lb Fc= 87 lb r = 3 in (radius to all load cells) FA X FC A 300 Z 0 FB B A circular plate is used in a machine called a compactor to determine the mechanical properties of various materials. In this particular test, three load cells are located at the same radial distance from point O. (Load cells measure force). If the load cells measure the forces shown above, determine the equivalent force system of a single force acting on the plate. Specifically: a) What is the x-coordinate of the point where the resultant force's line of action intersects the x-y plane? You must include sign, positive or negative. 30° b) What is the y-coordinate of the point where the resultant force's line of action intersects the x-y plane? You must include sign, positive or negative. y

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.
