Problem – 02: The (The last three digits of your student ID) kg sub-satellite B has an initial
velocity VB = (3 m/s) j. It is connected to the 35 kg base satellite A by 500 m space tether.
Determine the velocity of the base satellite and sub-satellite immediately after the tether
becomes taut (assuming no rebound).

Problem – 03: A cyclist uses a stationary trainer during the winter to keep in shape. Knowing
that he pushes down on his pedal with a velocity of (The last three digits of your Student ID)
inch/s that increases at a rate of 4 inch/s2, determine the velocity and acceleration of point D
on the bottom of the rear wheel.
Problem – 04: The human leg can be crudely approximated as two rigid bars (the femur and
the tibia) connected with a pin joint. At the instant shown in the figure, the velocity of ankle A
is zero, the tibia AK has an angular velocity of 1.5 rad/s counterclockwise and an angular
acceleration of 1 rad/s2 counterclockwise. Determine the relative angular velocity and relative
angular acceleration of the femur KH with respect to AK so that the velocity and acceleration
of H are both straight up at this instant.

Problem – 05: A heavy crate is being moved a short distance using three identical cylinders as
rollers. Knowing that at the instant shown in the figure, the crate has a velocity of (The last
three digits of your student ID) mm/s and an acceleration of 400 mm/s2, both directed to the
right, determine:

Problem – 06: A crate of mass (The last three digits of your student ID) kg is held in the position
shown in the figure. Immediately after the man accidentally drops the right end of the crate,
assuming that the box does not slip at point E, determine:

Problem – 07: The hatchback of a car is positioned as shown in the figure to help determine
the appropriate size for a damping mechanism AB. The weight of the door is (The last three
digits of your student ID) lb.s, and its mass moment of inertia about the center of gravity G is
15 lb.ft.s2. The linkage DEFH controls the motion of the hatch and is shown in more detail in
part (b) of the figure. Assume that the mass of the links DE, EF, and FH are negligible,
compared to the mass of the door. With AB removed, determine:
(a) The initial angular acceleration of the door as it is released from rest,
(b) The force on link FH.
Problem – 08: A bar of mass m = 5 kg is held as shown between four disks, each of mass m' =
2 kg and radius = 75 mm. Knowing that the forces exerted on the disks are sufficient to prevent
slipping and that the bar is released from rest, for each of the cases shown in the figure,
determine the velocity of the bar after it has moved through the distance h.

Problem – 09: A (The last three digits of your student ID) g bullet is fired with a velocity of
400 m/s at ϴ = 5° into a 9 kg square panel of side b = 200 mm. Knowing that the panel is
initially at rest, determine:
(a) The required distance h if the horizontal components of the impulsive reaction at A is
to be zero,
(b) The corresponding velocity of the center of the panel immediately after the bullet
becomes embedded.

Problem – 10: The man having the weight of (Your actual weight) lb is able to run up a 15 ft
high flight of stairs in 4 s. Determine the power generated. How long would a 100 w LED bulb
have to burn to expend the same amount of energy?
