A small package of weight W is projected into a vertical return loop at A with a velocity v0 . The package travels without friction along a circle of radius r and is deposited on a horizontal surface at C. For each of the two loops shown, determine (a) the smallest velocity v0 for which the package will reach the horizontal surface at C, (b) the corresponding force exerted by the loop on the package as it passes point B.
The crate/box shown has a square shape, an in-plane size of 10 ft X 10 ft and a uniformly
distributed 300 lb weight. It is hung on an overhead roller conveyer and being transported.
The crate is at rest when a horizontal force P of 40 lb is applied at the point E, which is 4 ft
above the bottom of the box. Knowing that the crate starts to move from rest and at the
instant t it reaches a speed of 9.3 ft/s. Neglect the frictions at the hinges A and B and
between the rollers and the rail track. Answer the following questions:
