Dear Recipient,
You are privileged to obtain a partial collection of answers for MEG 207 Dynamics. This
document was compiled from PDF files collected during Fall of 2002 and Spring 2003. I have
complied them into one document with Bookmarks to aid you in quickly finding the solutions you
need. Unfortunately this isn’t a complete compilation of all of the answers, but comprehensive
enough to help complement your studies.

Newton: Sum of moments about A: using L = R. m B = m a ss a t B

I A = I G + m B *(R)2 = (0.01/2+ 0.25)* m B = 0.255*m B

after simplification and regrouping we get:
