If either a simple or a compound pendulum is used to determine experimentally the acceleration of gravity g, difficulties are encountered. In the case of the simple pendulum, the string is not truly weightless, while in the case of the compound pendulum, the exact location of the mass center is difficult to establish. In the case of a compound pendulum, the difficulty can be eliminated by using a reversible, or Kater, pendulum. Two knife edges A and B are placed so that they are obviously not at the same distance from the mass center G, and the distance l is measured with great precision. The position of a counterweight D is then adjusted so that the period of oscillation τ obtained is equal to that of a true simple pendulum of length l and that g 4π2 l/τ.

- Please answer this NEATLY, COMPLETELY, and CORRECTLY for an UPVOTE. A pulley assembly is designed to measure the weight of block F using a counterweight. Springs G and H (k = 960 N/m) are compressed by 0.2 meters. Knowing that the system is in equilibrium, determine the mass of block F. Also, determine the tension carried by cable AI and the forces from bar A and bar C. Notes!There's a single cable from point J to point B. This cable is not attached to the cable from C to F.

When only conservative forces are acting on a system, we can use the conservation of energy theorem to solve a problem. Recall from particle kinetics: T₁ + V₁ = T2 + V2, where V is potential energy (due to both gravitational and elastic forces: V₂ = Wyc and Ve= + ½ ks², respectively). The 30-kg rod is released from rest when 0 = 45°. The spring is unstretched when 0 = 45°. Using conservation of energy theorem, determine the angular velocity of the rod when 0 = 0°.

The belt that surrounds pulley A tries to stop it unsuccessfully, resulting in pulley A rotating at a constant speed while the belt is fixed. The belt in turn passes through an idle pulley B (frictionless pulley) and pulls a block of mass m2 that is attached to the wall by a spring. If it is considered that the spring has already been stretched by the effect of the tension of the band and that said block is in a condition of imminent movement in the direction to the left, determine: a) The magnitude of the torque M applied to pulley A in the counterclockwise direction. b) The elongation of the spring for the exposed condition.
