A 5-m steel beam is lowered by means of two cables unwinding at the same speed from overhead cranes. As the beam approaches the

ground, the crane operators apply brakes to slow the unwinding motion.
At the instant considered, the deceleration of the cable attached at B is 2.5 m/s2 , while that of the cable attached at D is 1.5 m/s2 .

Determine

(a) the angular acceleration of the beam,
(b) the acceleration of points A and E.

Answer:

a) The angular acceleration of the beam is 0.5 rad/s²CW (direction clockwise due the tangential acceleration is positive)

b) The acceleration of point A is 3.25 m/s²

The acceleration of point E is 0.75 m/s²

Explanation:

a) The relative acceleration of B with respect to D is equal:

a_{B} =a_{D} +(a_{B/D} )_{n} +(a_{B/D} )_{t}

Where

aB = absolute acceleration of point B = 2.5 j (m/s²)

aD = absolute acceleration of point D = 1.5 j (m/s²)

(aB/D)n = relative acceleration of point B respect to D (normal direction BD) = 0, no angular velocity of the beam

(aB/D)t = relative acceleration of point B respect to D (tangential direction BD)

a_{B} =a_{D}  +(a_{B/D} )_{t}

2.5j=1.5j  +(a_{B/D} )_{t}\\(a_{B/D} )_{t}=j=1m/s^{2}

We have that

(aB/D)t = BDα

Where α = acceleration of the beam

BDα = 1 m/s²

Where

BD = 2

2\alpha =1\\\alpha =0.5rad/s^{2}CW

b) The acceleration of point A is:

a_{A} =a_{D}  +(a_{A/D} )_{t}

(aA/D)t = ADαj

a_{A} =a_{D}  +AD\alpha j\\a_{A}=1.5j+(3.5*0.5)j\\a_{A}=3.25jm/s^{2}

The acceleration of point E is:

(aE/D)t = -EDαj

a_{E} =a_{D}  -ED\alpha j\\a_{E}=1.5j-(1.5*0.5)j\\a_{E}=0.75jm/s^{2}

A rain cloud contains 5.32 × 107 kg of water vapor. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . How long would it take for a 2.0
Alja [10]

Answer:

20.85 years

Explanation:

2.61 km = 2610 m

2.07 kW = 2070 W

First we need to calculate the potential energy required to take m = 5.32 * 10^7 kg of rain cloud to an altitude of 2610 m is

E = mgh = 5.32 * 10^7 * 9.81 * 2610 = 1.4*10^{12}J

With a P = 2070 W power pump, this can be done within a time frame of

t = E/P = \frac{1.4*10^{12}}{2070} = 658037739 s

or 658037739/(60*60) = 182788 hours or 182788 / 24 = 7616 days or 7616 / 365.25 = 20.85 years
