Chapter 12 Problem 12-197

Question

The partial surface of the cam is that of a logarithmic spiral \(r=\left(40 e^{0.05 \theta}\right) \ mm\), where \(\theta\) is in radians. If the cam is rotating at a constant angular rate of \(\dot{\theta}=4 \mathrm{\ rad} / \mathrm{s}\), determine the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of the follower rod at the instant \(\theta=30^{\circ}\).

Solution

Step 1 of 4)

The first step in solving 12 problem number 245 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The partial surface of the cam is that of a logarithmic spiral \(r=\left(40 e^{0.05 \theta}\right) \ mm\), where \(\theta\) is in radians. If the cam is rotating at a constant angular rate of \(\dot{\theta}=4 \mathrm{\ rad} / \mathrm{s}\), determine the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of the follower rod at the instant \(\theta=30^{\circ}\).
From the textbook chapter Kinematics of a Particle you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
