q4 Solution

This document provides a quiz problem on kinematics of particles involving a mass-pulley system consisting of log A, block B, and collar D. The problem asks to (a) determine the acceleration of block B, (b) the acceleration of collar D relative to block B, and (c) the velocity of log A after 10 cm displacement, corresponding time, and displacement of block B. Kinematic relationships involving constant acceleration and the constraint that the total length of the cable remains constant are used to solve for the requested quantities. The acceleration of block B is found to be -0.6g or 5.89 m/s^2 upward, and the relative acceleration of collar D is 0.8g or 7

Problem statement: The mass-pulley system

Data & Diagram: (Draw and label completely)

is designed to consist of log A, block B, and


collar D as shown. Given that both log A and
collar D move with a constant acceleration of
0.2g downward (g = 9.81 m/s2) and that the
system starts from rest, determine

(b) the corresponding acceleration of collar D
relative to block B, and
(c) the velocity of log A after it has displaced
10 cm, the corresponding time, and
displacement of block B.

Solution:
Kinematics relationship:
xA + 2xD + xB = l

(1)

[+ 1]

Differentiating with respect to time yields:


x A + 2 x D + x B = 0
or
x A + 2 x D + x B = 0
or

vA + 2vD + vB = 0
aA + 2aD + aB = 0 [+ 1]

(3)

Given aA = 0.2g = 1.962 m/s2 and aD = 0.2g (= constant), from eq.(3) we have

a)

[+ 1]

or aB = 0.2g 2(0.2g) = 0.6g or 0.6g = 5.89 m/s2

0.2g + 2(0.2g) + aB = 0

aD/B = aD aB = 0.2g ( 0.6g) = 0.8g = 7.85 m/s2
