Chapter 18 Energy Methods

This document contains summaries of multiple physics problems involving energy methods: 1) A 200 kg spool on rollers is accelerated by a 400 N force. The problem determines the angular velocity after moving 8m from rest. 2) A 20kg cylinder A falls 2m, pulling a 15kg differential pulley. The problem determines the cylinder's speed after falling. 3) A 100lb block is transported by two 35lb rollers using a 25lb force. The problem finds the block's speed after moving 2ft from rest.

Problem 18.4
The spool of cable, originally at rest, has
a mass of 200 kg and a radius of gyration
of k_G=325 (mm). (a) If the spool rests
on two small rollers A and B and a
constant horizontal force of P=400 N is
applied to the end of the cable, determine
the angular vel. at 8m. No friction
Problem 18.15
(a) If the system is released from rest,
determine the speed of the 20kg cylinder
A after A has moved downward a distance
of 2m. The differential pulley has a mass
of 15 kg with a radius of gyration about its
center of mass of k_O= 100 mm.
Problem 18.30
The 100-lb block is transported a short
distance by using two cylindrical rollers,
each having a weight of 35-lb. (a) If a
horizontal force P=25 (lb) is applied to the
block, determine the block's speed after it has
been displaced 2 ft to the left. Start from rest,
18.5 Conservation of Energy
Problem 18.40
At the instant shown, the 50 lb bar rotates
clockwise at 2 (rad)/s. The spring attached
to its end always remains vertical due to
the roller guide at C. (a) If the spring has
an unstretched length of 2 ft and a stiffness
of k=6 (lb)/(ft), determine the angular vel.
Problem 18.45 •
The system consists of a 20-lb disk A, 4-lb
slender rod BC, and a 1-lb smooth collar C.
(a) If the disk rolls without slipping,
determine the velocity of the collar at the
instant the rod becomes horizontal, i.e.,
theta=0 degree(s). The system is released
from rest at theta= 45 deg.
Problem 18.51
The 30-kg pendulum has its mass center at G
and a radius of gyration about point G of k_G
= 300 mm. (a) If it is released from rest when
theta=0 degree(s), determine its angular
velocity at the instant theta = 90 degree(s).
Spring AB has a stiffness of k = 300 N/m and
is unstretched at theta = 0.
