The slotted arm OB rotates in a horizontal plane about point O of the fixed circular cam
Question:
The slotted arm OB rotates in a horizontal plane about point O of the fixed circular cam with constant angular velocity θ˙ = 15 rad/s. The spring has a stiffness of 5 kN/m and is uncompressed when θ = 0. The smooth roller A has a mass of 0.5 kg. Determine the normal force N which the cam exerts on A and also the force R exerted on A by the sides of the slot when θ = 45°. All surfaces are smooth. Neglect the small diameter of the roller.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
