A
The diagram shows the instant when a long slender bar of mass 2.2 kg and length 1.5 m is horizontal. At this instant the mass m= 6.1 kg has a
vertical velocity of 4.6 m/s.
If the pulley has negligible mass and all friction effects may be ignored, what is the magnitude of the reaction force on the bearing A?
Answer:
(a) Two blocks are joined by an inextensible cable as shown in Figure. If the system is released from rest, determine the velocity of block
A after it has moved 2 m by using the data given. Assume
that the coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and the plane is
?k = 0.25 and that the pulley is weightless and frictionless.
