Suppose an autonomous surface vessel (ASV) traveling with velocity TvG/O= vi₁ begins to make
a turn by adjusting the thrust of its left and right thrusters, TA and TB, respectively. The center of
mass of the ASV is located at G and the ASV is symmetric about its vertical axis. The ASV also
experiences a drag force that is proportional to its speed and opposes its velocity. At the instant
shown, the drag force is D = -kvi₁ where k is a drag coefficient.
1. To model the mass moment of inertia, approximate the ASV as consisting of three rigid
bodies: a flat plate as a center body of mass 6m and two slender rods housing the propulsion
assemblies, each of mass m, at the outboard sides of the vehicle. Determine the mass
moment of inertia, IG, about the vertical axis passing through the center of mass G. (Hint:
Use the parallel axis theorem.)
2. At the instant shown, determine the inertial acceleration vector ac/o = axi₁ + ayi2 of the
center of mass and the angular acceleration a of the…

- The conveyor belt shown below is inclined at an angle of 25 degrees. A 3kg package B is placed on the conveyor belt at the position shown with an initial velocity of 0 m/s with respect to the ground. The belt is moving quite fast, and as one could imagine the package is initially slipping, but it's accelerating at a rate of 3.05 m/s^2 until it catches up to the velocity of the belt. If this is the case, find the coefficient of friction between the belt and the package.arrow_forwardAs shown in the figure, a ball of mass m is connected to a string of length I to the top of a cone with frictionless sides. The cone is resting on the horizontal surface and the axis of the cone is vertical, making an angle of 30° with the side surface of the cone. The ball moves in a horizontal circle at a uniform speed v centered about the vertical axis of the cone. If the velocity v of the ball is greater than a certain velocity vo, it will lose contact with the surface of the cone and the angle o between the string and the vertical will no longer be 30°. 30! i. Prove that v, = Jgl sin 30° tan 30°. ii. Determine the tension T, in the string if the velocity of the ball is v = 3gl 2 (express you answer in terms of mg).

Suppose that (vA)1 = 9 m/s , (vB)1 = 8 m/s. The figure shows two discs, A and B, moving toward the origin of a horizontal xy-plane, where they collide, so that their common tangent lies on y-axis.
