Question: Problem # 2 : ( 3 5 points ) A 1 0 lb block B remains in contact with a bar O A , which
Problem #: points A lb block remains in contact with a bar which rotates in a
vertical plane with gravity acting downward as shown in Figure At any time the radial
position of the block and the orientation of the bar are given by position and angle
respectively. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between block and bar are and
respectively.
At the instant of time shown in the figure, the radial position of block is and the bar
rotates with an angular velocity and an angular acceleration of
a Draw a free body diagram of block at any time
b At the instant shown in the figure, find the normal force exerted by bar on block if the
block does not slide along bar, and find the magnitude and the direction of the friction force
needed to prevent block from sliding along bar at that instant.
c If the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between block and bar are and
respectively, then determine whether or not the block will slide along the bar at
the instant shown in the figure.
d Assuming that, at the instant shown, the block slides away from point at a radial speed
and the kinetic coefficient of friction is as given in part c find the
normal force exerted by bar on block and find of the block along the bar at that
instant.
e For any instant of time at which the block does slide along bar find the equation that
relates and You don't need to solve the equation!
