1. Two blocks A and B, of mass 12 kg and 15 kg, respectively,
hang from a cable that passes over a pulley of negligible
mass. The blocks are released from rest in the position
shown and block B is observed to strike the ground with a
velocity 1.4 m/s. Determine (a) the force exerted by the
cable on each of the two blocks, (b) the work done by the
friction torque during the interval.

Note: the work done by the friction torque should be negative.
Alternatively, we may consider System = A + pulley + B
2. The coefficients of friction between the load and the flatbed trailer shown
are s =0.4 and k =0.35. Knowing that the speed of the rig is 90 km/h,
determine the shortest time in which the rig can be brought to a stop if the
load is not to shift.
Knowing that the trailer and the load A are moving together:

3. The 50-N block is original at rest on the smooth surface. It is acted upon
by a radial force of 10 N and a horizontal force of 35 N, always directed at
30 from the tangent to the path as shown. Determine the time required to
break the cord, which requires a tension T = 150 N. What is the speed of
the block when this occurs? Neglect the size of the block for the
calculation.
Considering all the forces acting on B at the moment when
the cord is broken (at position 2), and using Newton’s second
law in normal direction, we have
F

Applying Principle of Angular Impulse and Momentum,
The moment of the inertia of the particle about O is

P2.17 A rod AB of length 600 mm
is pinned at B on a disk of radius r
= 200 mm. End A is pin joined to a
bar OA, which is of length 600 mm
and connected to a fixed pivot at O.
The disk rolls without slipping on
the ground. At the position shown,
point G has a speed of v = 100
mm/s to the right and zero
acceleration. Determine angular
velocity and angular acceleration of
bar OA at the position shown.
