Homework Statement Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution I have stared at this for hours and don't know where to start. I think I need to get r in terms of t but I don't really know how with the information given. I just need a good hint to get started.

Homework Statement The 160-Mg train travels with a speed of 80 kmlh when it starts to climb the slope. If the engine exerts a traction force F of 1120 of the weight of the train and the rolling resistance F D is equal to 1/500 of the weight of the train, determine the deceleration of the train...

1)The breech and barrel of a field gun have a total mass of 453.6kg. The recoil of the barrel is controlled by resistance forces from a buffer and recuperator, these forces are given by: Buffer force=71000/(s+1), recuperator force= P+ 4380s. (both are in Newtons). s is the recoil of the barrel...

Homework Statement A uniform bar ABCD having a mass of 4.25kg is pivoted at B shown in Figure below. The bar ABCD is supported at A and D by springs having stiffness’s of 12kN/m and 2kN/m respectively. A torsional spring of stiffness 100Nm/rad is also present at the pivot B and a damper is...

Homework Statement Here is a picture of the problem! http://imgur.com/suJxZ0F Also here it is in text, Rod AB rotates with the angular velocity and acceleration clockwise as shown. Points A,B and C are pin connected. Point C is free to slide horizontally as shown in the figure at the instant...

Homework Statement Two spheres are hanging from cords as shown. The distance from the ceiling to the center of each sphere is 2m, and the coefficient of restitution is 0.75. If sphere "A" (m_a = 2kg) is drawn back 60^o and released from rest, determine: a) The maximum angle, θ_B , that sphere...

1. Problem statement: A 5000-lb truck is being used to lift a 1000-lb boulder B that is on a 200-lb pallet. Knowing the acceleration of the truck is 1 ft/s^2, determine the horizontal force between the tires and ground. The truck is on a horizontal plane with the boulder and pallet...

Homework Statement A car, assumed to be rigid and having a mass of 800 kg, strikes a barrel-barrier installation without the driver applying the brakes. From experiments the magnitude of the force of resistance F_r, created by deforming the barrels successive, is shown as a function of the...

Homework Statement It is given in the photo Homework Equations They are all given in the photo The Attempt at a SolutionI solved exactly the same as in the solution manual, except for the FBD of the slider B, when they write the 2nd Law, they do not input the weight there, only the...

Homework Statement A plastic film moves over two drums. During a 4s interval the speed of the tape is increased uniformly from v0= 2ft/s to v1= 4ft/s. Knowing that the tape does not slip on the drums, determine (a) the angular acceleration of drum B, (b) the number of revolutions executed by...

Homework Statement A ball of 10kg mass is suspended by a cable that passes through a hole in a floor. The ball rotates in a circular orbit, A, that is in a plane that is 3m below the floor. If the orbit has a radius of 1m, calculate; a) Tension in the cable b) speed va of the ball in...

Homework Statement A race boat is traveling at a constant speed v0 = 130 mph when it performs a turn with constant radius ρ to change its course by 90°. The turn is performed while losing speed uniformly in time so that the boat's speed at the end of the turn is vf = 116 mph. If the magnitude...

Vibration - Equation of motion Q A machine having a mass of 1500 kg is mounted on supports which provide an effective vertical stiffness of 4.5 MN/m. The machine is subjected to a vertical harmonic force having an amplitude of 200 N at a frequency equivalent to 80% of the natural frequency of...

Homework Statement The rocket sled starts from rest and accelerates at a = 30 + 2t until its velocity is 400m/s. It then hits a water brake and its acceleration is a = -0.003v^2 m/s^2 until its velocity decreases to 100 m/s. What total distance does it travel? Homework Equations v = u...

hey, does anyone have a recommendation of a good dynamics book? the dynamics class I'm taking this semester doesn't have a specific book. I've been through too many books and i just wanted to get some input on a good, easy to teach yourself book. this is an online dynamics class by the...

The cable at C is being pulled down at a velocity of 4 \frac{ft}{s}. The cable at C is also decelerating at a rate of 2 \frac{ft}{s^2}. At what velocity and acceleration is the block at A moving? http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/729/engr204problem121795wl.jpg I have the following...

If anyone could help me with some problems from this book that would be great. The problems are a bit much to describe, so if anyone knows this text and can help, let me know, and then I can describe what particular problems I am having trouble with and why. Thanks
