A pole-vaulter is nearly motionless as he clears the bar, set 4.2 m above the ground. He then falls onto a thick pad. The top of

the pad is 80 cm above the ground, and it compresses by 50 cm as he comes to rest. What is the magnitude of his acceleration as he comes to rest on the pad?

initial height of the Pole - vaulter = 4.2 m

now when he reached the top of the pad his height is 80 cm

so the total displacement of the person will be = 4.2 - 0.8 = 3.4 m

now we can use kinematics to find the speed just before he touch the pad

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2*9.8*3.4$

$v_f^2 = 66.64$

$v_f = 8.16 m/s$

now when he compressed on pad the distance after which he will stop is 50 cm

so now again using kinematics we can say

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$0 - 8.16^2 = 2*a*0.50$

$a = -66.64 m/s^2$

so it is acceleration by -66.64 m/s^2

Arm ab has a constant angular velocity of 16 rad/s counterclockwise. At the instant when theta = 60

geniusboy [140]

The <em>linear</em> acceleration of collar D when <em>θ = 60°</em> is - 693.867 inches per square second.

<h3>How to determine the angular velocity of a collar</h3>

In this question we have a system formed by three elements, the element AB experiments a <em>pure</em> rotation at <em>constant</em> velocity, the element BD has a <em>general plane</em> motion, which is a combination of rotation and traslation, and the ruff experiments a <em>pure</em> translation.

To determine the <em>linear</em> acceleration of the collar ( $a_{D}$ ), in inches per square second, we need to determine first all <em>linear</em> and <em>angular</em> velocities ( $v_{D}$ , $\omega_{BD}$ ), in inches per second and radians per second, respectively, and later all <em>linear</em> and <em>angular</em> accelerations ( $a_{D}$ , $\alpha_{BD}$ ), the latter in radians per square second.

By definitions of <em>relative</em> velocity and <em>relative</em> acceleration we build the following two systems of <em>linear</em> equations:

<h3>Velocities</h3>

$v_{D} + \omega_{BD}\cdot r_{BD}\cdot \sin \gamma = -\omega_{AB}\cdot r_{AB}\cdot \sin \theta$ (1)

$\omega_{BD}\cdot r_{BD}\cdot \cos \gamma = -\omega_{AB}\cdot r_{AB}\cdot \cos \theta$ (2)

<h3>Accelerations</h3>

$a_{D}+\alpha_{BD}\cdot \sin \gamma = -\omega_{AB}^{2}\cdot r_{AB}\cdot \cos \theta -\alpha_{AB}\cdot r_{AB}\cdot \sin \theta - \omega_{BD}^{2}\cdot r_{BD}\cdot \cos \gamma$ (3)

$-\alpha_{BD}\cdot r_{BD}\cdot \cos \gamma = - \omega_{AB}^{2}\cdot r_{AB}\cdot \sin \theta + \alpha_{AB}\cdot r_{AB}\cdot \cos \theta - \omega_{BD}^{2}\cdot r_{BD}\cdot \sin \gamma$ (4)

If we know that $\theta = 60^{\circ}$ , $\gamma = 19.889^{\circ}$ , $r_{BD} = 10\,in$ , $\omega_{AB} = 16\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $r_{AB} = 3\,in$ and $\alpha_{AB} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , then the solution of the systems of linear equations are, respectively:

<h3>Velocities</h3>

$v_{D}+3.402\cdot \omega_{BD} = -41.569$ (1)

$9.404\cdot \omega_{BD} = -24$ (2)

$v_{D} = -32.887\,\frac{in}{s}$ , $\omega_{BD} = -2.552\,\frac{rad}{s}$

<h3>Accelerations</h3>

$a_{D}+3.402\cdot \alpha_{BD} = -445.242$ (3)

$-9.404\cdot \alpha_{BD} = -687.264$ (4)

$a_{D} = -693.867\,\frac{in}{s^{2}}$ , $\alpha_{BD} = 73.082\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

The <em>linear</em> acceleration of collar D when <em>θ = 60°</em> is - 693.867 inches per square second. $\blacksquare$

<h3>Remark</h3>

The statement is incomplete and figure is missing, complete form is introduced below:

<em>Arm AB has a constant angular velocity of 16 radians per second counterclockwise. At the instant when θ = 60°, determine the acceleration of collar D.</em>

Determine the maximum shearing stress in a solid shaft of 1.5-in. diameter as it transmits 75 hp at a speed of 1800 rpm. (Round

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

$\tau=3.96\ ksi$

Explanation:

Given that

d= 1.5 in ( 1 in = 0.0254 m)

d= 0.0381 m

P= 75 hp ( 1 hp = 745.7 W)

P= 55927.5 W

N= 1800 rpm

We know that power P is given as

$P=\dfrac{2\pi N\ T}{60}$

T=Torque

N=Speed

$55927.5=\dfrac{2\times \pi \times 1800\ T}{60}$

T=296.85 N.m

The maximum shear stress is given as

$\tau=\dfrac{16 T}{\pi d^3}$

$\tau=\dfrac{16\times 296.85}{\pi \times 0.0381^3}$

$\tau=27.35\ MPa$

We know that 1 MPa =0.145 ksi

$\tau=3.96\ ksi$
