Answer:

The greatest mass, that the weight C can have such that block A does not move is approximately 23.259 kg

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the block A= 58 kg

The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface, \mu _s = 0.300

The coefficient of static friction between the rope and the fixed peg, B \mu _B = 0.310

Let T represent the tension in the rope

Therefore, when the rope is static, T = The normal reaction at the peg, B, N_B

The angle of inclination of the rope holding the block A = arctan(3/4) ≈ 36.87°

The length of the rope = √(0.4² + 0.3²) = 0.5

∴ sin(θ) = 3/5 = 0.6

cos(θ) = 4/5 = 0.8

The vertical component of the tension in the rope = T × sin(θ) = 0.6·T

The horizontal component of the tension in the rope = T × cos(θ) = 0.8·T

The friction force = μ×(W - 0.6·T) = 0.300×(58×9.8 - 0.6·T) = 170.52 - 0.18·T

The block will start to move when we have;

The horizontal component of the tension in the rope = The friction force

∴ 0.8·T = 170.52 - 0.18·T

0.8·T + 0.18·T = 170.52

0.98·T = 170.52

T = 170.52/0.98 = 174

Therefore, the tension in the rope = T = 174 N = The normal reaction at the peg, B N_B

The frictional force at the peg, F_B = \mu _B × N_B = 0.310 × 174 N = 53.94 N

The weight of the mass, m_c, W_c = The frictional force at the peg, F_B  + The tension in the rope

∴ The weight of the mass, m_c, W_c = 53.94 N + 174 N = 227.94 N

Weight, W = Mass, m × The acceleration due to gravity, g, from which we have;

m = W/g

Where;

g = 9.8 m/s²

∴ m_c = W_c/g = 227.94 N/(9.8 m/s²) ≈ 23.259 kg.

The greatest mass, that the weight C can have such that block A does not move = m_c ≈ 23.259 kg.

The disk of radius 0.4 m is originally rotating at ωo=4 rad/sec. If it is subjected to a constant angular acceleration of α=5 ra
Lina20 [59]

Answer:32.4m/s^2

Explanation:

Given data

radius\left ( r\right )=0.4m

Intial angular velocity\left ( \omega_0\right )=4rad/s

angular acceleration\left ( \alpha\right )=5rad/s^2

angular velocity after 1 sec

\omega=\omega_0+\alpha\times\t

\omega=4+5\left ( 1\right )

\omega=9rad/s

Velocity of point on the outer surface of disc\left ( v\right )=\omega_0\timesr

v=9\times0.4 m/s=3.6m/s

Normal component of acceleration\left ( a_c\right )=\frac{v^2}{r}

a_c=\frac{3.6\times3.6}{0.4}=32.4m/s^2
