Dynamics 2e 2169
Problem 10.49
The thin uniform disk of radius
R
and mass
m
is mounted on the horizontal
shaft, such that the mass center of the disk is on the axis of rotation. Due
to an error in manufacturing, the disk has a misalignment angle
✓
relative
to the shaft, such that the position shown occurs only once for each
revolution of the shaft. If the shaft is rotating with a constant angular
speed !s, determine the reactions at the bearing Aon the shaft.
Solution
Referring to the FBD of the disk and shaft at the right, we have
neglected the weights of all members so that we find only the
dynamic reactions at
A
.
⇤
The
xy´
frame is attached to the
disk with its origin at
G
and it is aligned with the principal
directions of the disk. The
XYZ
frame is also attached to the
disk with its origin at G, but is aligned as shown.
Balance Principles.
Summing forces on the disk, we obtain
