Textbook Solutions for Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Dynamics

Chapter 17 Problem 17.89

Question

A 1.8-kg collar A and a 0.7-kg collar B can slide without friction on a frame, consisting of the horizontal rod OE and the vertical rod CD, which is free to rotate about its vertical axis of symmetry. The two collars are connected by a cord running over a pulley that is attached to the frame at O. At the instant shown, the velocity \(v_{A}\) of collar A has a magnitude of 2.1 m/s and a stop prevents collar B from moving. The stop is suddenly removed and collar A moves toward E. As it reaches a distance of 0.12 m from O, the magnitude of its velocity is observed to be 2.5 m/s. Determine at that instant the magnitude of the angular velocity of the frame and the moment of inertia of the frame and pulley system about CD.

Solution

Step 1 of 7)

The first step in solving 17 problem number 89 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A 1.8-kg collar A and a 0.7-kg collar B can slide without friction on a frame, consisting of the horizontal rod OE and the vertical rod CD, which is free to rotate about its vertical axis of symmetry. The two collars are connected by a cord running over a pulley that is attached to the frame at O. At the instant shown, the velocity \(v_{A}\) of collar A has a magnitude of 2.1 m/s and a stop prevents collar B from moving. The stop is suddenly removed and collar A moves toward E. As it reaches a distance of 0.12 m from O, the magnitude of its velocity is observed to be 2.5 m/s. Determine at that instant the magnitude of the angular velocity of the frame and the moment of inertia of the frame and pulley system about CD.
From the textbook chapter Plane Motion of Rigid Bodies: Energy and Momentum Methods you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
