    D'Alembert's Principle: REF Ma REF W G

    Uploaded by

    Gianne Karl Almarines
    D'Alembert's Principle states that when a body experiences acceleration, there exists an equal and opposite force called the reverse effective force. The reverse effective force is equal to the product of the mass and acceleration of the body. For example, when decelerating a bicycle with a mass of 70 kg at a rate of 40 cm/s^2, the reverse effective force is 28 N. D'Alembert's Principle is used to solve problems involving forces required to accelerate or decelerate moving objects.

    D’Alembert’s Principle

    D’Alembert’s Principle is stated as follows:


    “When the body is subjected to an acceleration, there exists a force opposite the direction of the
    motion and equal to the product of mass and acceleration.”
    The forced mentioned in D’Alembert’s Principle is known as the reverse effective force.

    REF

    The reverse effective force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration. Mathematically,
    W
    REF=ma∨REF= a
    g

    Problem Solving:
    A bicycle moving at 60 km/hr has a mass of 70 kg. What force is necessary to decelerate it at a rate
    of 40 cm/s2?

    -a

    REF

    Solution:

    ∑ F x=0
    F=ma=REF =( 70 kg ) (0.4 m/s 2)
    F=28 N
    Assignment

    1.) A pick-up truck is travelling forward at 25 m/s. The bed is loaded with boxes whose coefficient
    of friction with the bed is 0.4. What is the shortest time that the truck can be bought to a stop such
    that the boxes do not shift? Ans. 6.37 s

    2.) An elevator weighing 2,000 lb attains an upward velocity of 16 fps in 4 seconds with uniform
    acceleration. What is the tension in the supporting cables? Ans. S = 19.33 ft

    3.)
