Problem 7.31
The uniform disk of radius
RD0:8 ft
and weight
WD20 lb
is pin-
connected to the link
AB
and is pulled on its periphery by a force
P
via a rope that is wrapped around the disk. The coefficient of kinetic
friction between the disk and the surface on which it sits is
kD0:5
.
Neglect the mass of link
AB
and assume that
s
is insufficient to
prevent slipping.
For
PD15 lb
and
D0ı
, determine the angular acceleration
of the disk
˛d
and the time it takes to achieve an angular velocity of
!dD35 rad=s, assuming that the disk starts from rest.

Problem 7.34
A classic balsa wood toy airplane is powered by a rubber band that winds
up when its four-bladed propeller is rotated by hand. When released, the
rubber band unwinds and the propeller starts spinning, thus propelling
the plane around the room. Model each propeller blade as a slender rod
of length
LD6cm
and mass
mD2

model the rubber band as a linear elastic torsional spring with constant

it is initially wound up 20 revolutions.

The driveway gate is hinged at its right end and is pushed open
with a force
P
. Where should the force
P
be applied (i.e., where
should
A
be located) so that the force acting on the hinge due to the
gate always acts along a line parallel to the gate and in the plane
of the gate during the entire time the gate is opening? Neglect the
weight force acting on the gate, and model the gate as a uniform
thin bar as shown below the photo.
