Assignment #1 MK Kinematika & Dinamika: Kinematics of Particles-Rectilinear Motions

This document contains 7 problems related to kinematics and dynamics of particles involving rectilinear motion. The problems cover topics like determining the vertical separation between balls falling at a steady rate, calculating the distance a ball moves up an incline and the total time to return to the starting point, and finding the speed of a car decelerating on an incline after a set time or distance. The document was created by Dr. Achmad Widodo for an assignment in Mechanical Engineering at Diponegoro University.

Assignment #1 MK Kinematika & Dinamika

Kinematics of Particles-Rectilinear Motions


Dr. Achmad Widodo [Mechanical Engineering-Diponegoro University]

1. Small steel balls fall from rest through the opening at A at steady
state rate of two per second. Find the vertical separation h of two
consecutive balls when the lower one has dropped 3 meters. Neglect
air resistance.

2. A girl rolls a ball up an incline and allows it to


return to her. For the angle and ball
involved, the acceleration of the ball along the
incline is constant at 0.25g, directed down the
incline. If the ball is released with a speed of 4
m/s, determine the distance s it moves up the
incline before reversing its direction and the
total time required for the ball to return to the
child’s hand.

3. The car is traveling at a constant speed v0 =


100 km/h on the level portion of the road.
When the 6-percent (tanq=6/100) incline is
encountered, the driver does not change the
throttle setting and consequently the car
decelerates at the constant rate g sin q.
Determine the speed of the car (a)10 second
after passing point A, and (b) when s = 100
m.

4. A motorcycle patrolman stars from rest at A


two seconds after a car, speeding at the constant
rate of 120 km/h, passes point A. If the
patrolman accelerates at the rate of 6 m/s2 until
he reaches his maximum permissible speed of
150 km/h, which he remains, calculate the
distance s from point A to the point at which he
overtakes the car.

5. A vacuum-propelled capsule for a high-speed


tube transportation system of the future is being
design for operation between two station A and
B, which are 10 km apart. If the acceleration
and deceleration are to have a limiting
magnitude of 0.6g and if velocities are to be limited to 400 km/h, determine the minimum time t
for the capsule to make the 10-km trip.

6. To a close approximation the pressure behind a


rifle bullet varies inversely with the position x
of the bullet along the barrel. Thus the
acceleration of the bullet may be written as a =
k/x where k is a constant. If the bullet starts
from rest at x = 7.5 mm and if the muzzle
velocity of the bullet is 600 m/s at the end of
the 750-mm barrel, compute the acceleration of
the bullet as it passes the midpoint of the barrel
at x = 375 mm.

7. The driver of a car, which is initially at rest at


the top A of the grade, releases the brakes and
coasts down the grade with an acceleration in
feet per second squared given by a = 3.22 –
0.004v 2, where v is the velocity in feet per
second. Determine the velocity v B at the bottom
B of the grade.
