Answer: 3/2mg
Explanation:
Express the moment equation about point B
MB = (M K)B
-mg cosθ (L/6) = m[α(L/6)](L/6) – (1/12mL^2 )α
α = 3g/2L cosθ
express the force equation along n and t axes.
Ft = m (aG)t
mg cosθ – Bt = m [(3g/2L cos) (L/6)]
Bt = ¾ mg cosθ
Fn = m (aG)n
Bn -mgsinθ = m[ω^2 (L/6)]
Bn =1/6 mω^2 L + mgsinθ
Calculate the angular velocity of the rod
ω = √(3g/L sinθ)
when θ = 90°, calculate the values of Bt and Bn
Bt =3/4 mg cos90°
= 0
Bn =1/6m (3g/L)(L) + mg sin (9o°)
= 3/2mg
Hence, the reactive force at A is,
FA = √(02 +(3/2mg)^2
= 3/2 mg
The magnitude of the reactive force exerted on it by pin B when θ = 90° is 3/2mg
