.PROBLEM 2. The collar of 5 kg is confined to
move along the smooth circular rod lying in
x-y plane. The attached spring has an
unstretched length of 200 mm. If at the
instant = 30° the collar has a speed v = 2
m/s, determine the magnitudes of the
normal force of the rod on the collar and
the collar’s normal acceleration.

.PROBLEM 3. Crates A and B of mass 50 kg and 75 kg, respectively,
are released from rest. The linear elastic spring has stiffness k = 500
N/m. Neglect the mass of the pulleys and cables and neglect friction
in the pulley bearings. If k= 0.25 and the spring is initially
unstretched, determine the speed of B after A slides 4 m. (25

.PROBLEM 4. Cue balls with diameter 52.5mm and mass
m 160gr in Fig. 4 are moving to each other with constant
velocities v1 2m/s and v2 3m/s . The distance between the
center of masses of two balls is s 20 mm . If the coefficient of
