    Lesson 7 Kinetics of Curvilinear Translation, Dynamic Equilibrium

    Uploaded by

    Nadjer C. Adam
    This lesson discusses curvilinear translation and dynamic equilibrium. It provides examples of how to solve problems involving a rotating rod with weights at the ends, a ball rotating inside a conical shell, and a hammer pivoted on a horizontal axis. The learning outcome is for students to solve kinetics and dynamic equilibrium problems. Examples are worked through involving tension, reaction forces, and speeds required for zero net force. A practice problem is provided to check understanding. References on engineering mechanics are listed.

    KINETICS OF CURVILINEAR TRANSLATION, DYNAMIC


    EQUILIBRIUM

    Overview:
    In lesson 5, flight of projectile was discussed. This lesson will extend the
    discussion on dynamic equilibrium.

    Learning Outcome:
    At the end of this lesson, the students can solve problems involving
    dynamic equilibrium

    Materials Needed:
    Hand-outs, Chalkboard/chalk, Eraser, Laptop, Projector and PPT
    presentation

    Duration: 4 hours

    Learning Content:
    Kinetics of curvilinear translation, dynamic equilibrium

    Example No. 1
    A rod 4 ft long rotates in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis through its
    center. At each end of the rod is fastened a chord 3 ft long. Each chord supports
    a weight W. Compute the speed of rotation in rpm to incline each cord at 30 0 with
    the vertical.

    Solution:
    WV2 V2
    tan θ = =
    Wgr gr

    V2
    tan 300 =
    gr

    r = 3.5
    V2
    tan 300 =
    32.2(3.5)

    V = 8.07 fps

    V = rω
    8.07 = 3.5 ω
    ω = 2.30 rad/sec
    ω = 2.30 rad/sec (60 sec/min) (1rev/2𝜋rad
    ω = 22 rpm

    Example No. 2
    In the figure shown, the 20 lb ball is forced to rotate around the smooth inside
    𝜋
    surface of a conical shell at the rate of one revolution in sec. Assuming that g =
    4

    32 fps2
    A). find the tension in the chord
    B). find the force on the conical shell
    C). at what speed in rpm will the force on the shell become zero?

    Solution:
    A). Tension in the chord
    r = 4 Sin 300
    r =2 ft
    2π
    ω= = 8 rad/sec
    π/4

    V = r ω = 2(8) = 16 fps

    20(16)2
    T = 20 Cos 300 + Cos 600

    T = 57.3 lb

    B). Force on the conical shell

    WV2 20(16)2
    R= Sin 600 – W Sin 300 = Sin 600 – 20 Sin 300
    gr 32(2)
    R = 59.3 lb

    C). Speed so that the force on the shell become zero.

    R= Sin 600 – W Sin 300

    6.08 = 2 ω

    ω = 3.04 rad/sec

    3.04(60)
    ω=

    ω = 29 rpm

    Example No. 3
    The hammer of an impact testing machine weighs 64.4 lb as shown in the figure.
    It is attached to the end of a light rod 4 ft long which is pivoted to a horizontal axis
    at A.
    A) What is the bearing reaction on the pivot an instant after being released
    from the given position?
    B) What is the bearing reaction just before impact at B if the velocity of the
    hammer is then 5.9 fps?

    Solution:
    A). Reaction on the pivot after being
    released from the given position

    T Cos 300 = W
    W
    T=
    Cos 300
    64.4
    T = Cos 300

    T = 74.36 lb

    B). Reaction on the pivot just before impact at B.

    WV2
    T1 = W +
    gr

    64.4(5.9)2
    T1 = 64.4 +
    32.2(4)
    T1 = 81.8 lb

    Learning Activity:
    Seatwork:
    To check the radius of a railroad curve, the effect of a 20 lb weight is observed to
    be 20.7 lb on a spring scale suspended from the roof of an experimental car
    rounding the curve at 40 mph. What is the radius of the curve?

    Ans θ = 14.940
    V = 58.67 fps
    R = 400.5 ft

    Learning Evaluation:
    Solve the problem below neatly and correctly.
    A weight concentrated at the end of a chord forms a conical pendulum for which
    the period is 1 sec. Determine the velocity V of the weight if the chord rotates
    inclined at 300 with the vertical.
