the rear-wheel-drive lawn mower, when placed into gear while at rest, is observed to momentarily spin

its rear tires as it accelerates. if the coefficients of friction between the rear tires and the ground are
m=0.7 mk=0.5. determine the forward acceleration a of the mower. the mass of the mower and
attached bag is 50kg with center of mass at G. assume that the operator does not push on the handle, so
that P=0.

determine the minium speed v and the corresponding angle O in order that the motorcycle may ride on
the vertical wall of a cylindrical track. the effective coefficient of friction between the tires and the wall
is 0.70. (Note that the forces and acceleration lie in the plane of the figure, so the problem may be
treated as one of translatory plane motion).

the 1650kg car has its mass center at G. calculate the normal forces NA and NB between the road and
the front and rear pairs of wheels under conditions of maximum acceleration. The mass of the wheels is
small compared with the total mass of the car. The coefficient of static friction between the road and
the rear driving wheels is 0.8.

a passenger car of an overhead monorail system is driven by one of its two small wheels A or B. select
de one for which the car can be given the greater acceleration without slipping the driving wheel and
compute the maximum acceleration if the effective coefficient of friction is limited to 0.25 between the
wheels and the rail. Neglect the small mass of the wheels.

The uniform 80 lb plank is supported in the pickup truck at its end A at B where it rests on the smooth
top of the cab. Calculate the contact force at B if the truck starts forward with an acceleration
a=12ft/se2.

Arm AB of a classifying accelerometer has a weight of 0.25 lb whit mass center at G and is pivoted freely
to the frame F at A. the torsional spring at A is set to preload the arm with an applied clockwise moment
of 2lb-in. determine the downward acceleration a of the frame at which the contacts at B will separate
and break the electrical circuit.

The uniform 60 lb-in log is supported by the two cables and used as a battering ram. If the log is released
from rest in the position shown, calculate the initial tension induced in each cable immediately after
release and the corresponding angular acceleration angular of the cables.
Determine the value of the force P which would cause the cabinet to begin to tip. What coefficient ms of
static friction is necessary to ensure that tipping occurs without slipping?

The solid cylindrical rotor B has a mass of 43kg and is mounted on its central axis C-C. the frame A
rotates about the fixed vertical axis O-O under the applied torque M=30N.m. the rotor may be unlocked
from the frame by withdrawing the locking pin P. calculate the angular acceleration angular of the frame
A if the locking pin is a in place an b withdrawn. Neglect all friction and the mass of the frame.

The mass of gear A is 20kg and its centroidal radius of gyration is 150mm. the mass of gear B is 10kg and
its centroidal radius of gyration is 100mm. calculate the angular acceleration of gear B when a torque of
12 N.m is applied to the shaft of gear A. Neglect friction.
