The mechanical tachometer measures the rotational speed N of the shaft by the horizontal motion of the
Question:
The mechanical tachometer measures the rotational speed N of the shaft by the horizontal motion of the collar B along the rotating shaft. This movement is caused by the centrifugal action of the two 12-oz weights A, which rotate with the shaft. Collar C is fixed to the shaft. Determine the rotational speed N of the shaft for a reading β = 15°. The stiffness of the spring is 5 lb/in., and it is uncompressed when θ = 0 and β = 0. Neglect the weights of the links.

In this experiment, we will discuss Newton\'s second law of motion. In this experiment, we use a bucket that is filled with water and attach it to a rope that passes from the pulley. A person is pulling the rope down to lift the bucket filled with water. The question is how much time does a bucket take to fall on the ground when we leave the rope? A 2.0 kg bucket is attached to a massless string that is wrapped around a 1.0 kg, 4.0 cm diameter cylinder. The cylinder rotates on an axle through the center. The bucket is released from rest 1.0 m above the floor. How long does it take to reach the floor?
