The point where the person holds the handle (point A) is constrained to move along the vertical and has a velocity of 0.12 m/s downwards and is increasing its speed at a constant rate of 0.4 m/s2. This is to move the tail end (Point B) of the cleaner. The tail end of the cleaner has a velocity of 0.0840 m/s to the right and the vacuum cleaner has an angular velocity of 0.0586 rad/s.a) What is the the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the vacuum cleaner (Bar AB)?

- Consider a train consisting of an engine of mass 55 tonne pulling 10 trucks, each of mass 13 tonne, travelling up an incline of 1 in 100 (sine). The rolling resistance to motion is 40 N/tonne, and the train's speed is increased from 20 km/h to 37 km/h over a distance of 600 m. Calculate: the total mass of the train: kg. the change in height of the train: metres. the change in potential energy of the train: MJ. the starting velocity of the train: m/s. the final velocity of the train: m/s. the change in kinetic energy of the train: MJ. the work done against the rolling resistance: MJ. the total work done by the engine: MJ.arrow_forwardAn engineer designing a light aircraft is trying to make an estimate of the radius of the propeller needed. The design speed of the aircraft is 69m/s into still air and at this speed experience allows the engineer to assume a propeller efficiency of 0.8. Other analysis shows that a thrust of 9296N must be supplied by the propeller to maintain the design speed. Assuming a constant air density of 1.21 kg/m³, determine the radius of the ideal propeller in m to 2 decimal places. Note: Use the propulsive efficiency equation to find the final downstream speed of the air and check that this makes physical sense before calculating the radius.arrow_forwardA cargo truck weighing 2,700 kg accelerates from 3.5 m / s to 6.2 m / s in 12.0 seconds applying a constant force.
