Problem 2.211
The collar is mounted on the horizontal arm shown, which is originally
rotating with the angular velocity
!0
. Assume that after the cord is
cut, the collar slides along the arm in such a way that the collar’s total
acceleration is equal to zero. Determine an expression of the radial
component of the collar’s velocity as a function of
r
, the distance from
the spin axis. Hint: Using polar coordinates, observe that

Solution
We are told that the collar’s acceleration is zero, which implies that each component of its acceleration must
be zero. Looking first at the transverse component of acceleration, we must have
