The slender 15-kg bar is initially at rest and standing in the
vertical position when the bottom end A is displaced slightly
to the right. If the track in which it moves is smooth,
determine the speed at which end A strikes the corner D.
The bar is constrained to move in the vertical plane. Neglect
the mass of the cord BC.

The pendulum consists of a 6-kg slender rod fixed to a 15-kg
disk. If the spring has an unstretched length of 0.2 m,
determine the angular velocity of the pendulum when it is
released from rest and rotates clockwise 90° from the
position shown. The roller at C allows the spring to always
remain vertical.

The end Aof the garage door AB travels along the
horizontal track, and the end of member BC is attached to a
spring at C. If the spring is originally unstretched, determine
the stiffness kso that when the door falls downward from
rest in the position shown, it will have zero angular velocity
the moment it closes, i.e., when it and BC become vertical.
Neglect the mass of member BC and assume the door is a
thin plate having a weight of 200 lb and a width and height
of 12 ft. There is a similar connection and spring on the
other side of the door.
