Question 2[17 marks]
A slotted arm revolves in the horizontal plane around the fixed vertical axis at O (i.e."up" is
out of the page). The 5 kg slider is drawn toward O along the slot by a motor pulling the cord
S . The slider is accelerating along the slot at a rate of 1ms2. The coefficient of friction
between the slot and slider is k=0.3. The motor has an efficiency of 60%. At the instant
for which r=500mm and r=50mms, the arm is at angle of 15 to the horizontal, has a
counterclockwise angular velocity =6rads, and is slowing down at the rate of
2.5rads2. At this instant, determine:
(a) The normal force exerted on the slider by the sides of the smooth radial slot,
(b) The tension in the cord; and
(c) The power supplied to the motor
.please answer all the questions and give me clarity on whether the friction is 2f or just f
