Answer:
See explaination
Explanation:
Please kindly check attachment for the step by step solution of the given problem.
Rockfalls can cause major damage to roads and infrastructure. To design mitigation bridges and barriers, engineers use the coeff
icient of restitution to model the behavior of the rocks. The rock A falls a distance of 32 m before striking an incline with slope α = 40°. Knowing that the coefficient of restitution between A and the incline is 0.2, determine the velocity of the rock after the impact.

F = 1.81 N
Explanation:
Given:
- The attachment missing from the question is given:
- The given expressions for the radial and θ direction of motion:
r = 0.5*θ
θ = 0.5*t^2 ...... (correction for the question)
- Mass of peg m = 0.5 kg
Find:
a) Determine the magnitude of the force of the rod on the peg at the instant t = 2 s.
b) Determine the magnitude of the normal force of the slot on the peg.
Solution:
- Determine the expressions for radial kinematics:
dr/dt = 0.5*dθ/dt
d^2r/dt^2 = 0.5*d^2θ/dt^2
- Similarly the expressions for θ direction kinematics:
dθ/dt = t
d^2θ/dt^2 = 1
- Evaluate each at time t = 2 s.
θ = 0.5*t^2 = 0.5*2^2 = 2 rad -----> 114.59°
r = 1 m , dr / dt = 1 m/s , d^2 r / dt^2 = 0.5 m/s^2
- Evaluate the angle ψ between radial and horizontal direction:
tan Ψ = r / (dr/dθ) = 1 / 0.5
Ψ = 63.43°
- Develop a free body diagram (attached) and the compute the radial and θ acceleration:
a_r = d^2r / dt^2 - r * dθ/dt
a_r = 0.5 - 1*(2)^2 = -3.5 m/s^2
a_θ = r * (d^2θ/dt^2) + 2 * (dr/dt) * (dθ/dt)
a_θ = 1(1) + 2*(1)*(2) = 5 m/s^2
- Using Newton's Second Law of motion to construct equations in both radial and θ directions as follows:
Radial direction: N_c * cos(26.57) - W*cos(24.59) = m*a_r
θ direction: F - N_c * sin(26.57) + W*sin(24.59) = m*a_θ
Where, F is the force on the peg by rod and N_c is the normal force on peg by the slot. W is the weight of the peg. Using radial equation:
N_c * cos(26.57) - 4.905*cos(24.59) = 0.5*-3.5
N_c = 3.03 N
F - 3.03 * sin(26.57) + 4.905*sin(24.59) = 0.5*5
F = 1.81 N
