Previously, problems dealing with the motion of
particles were solved through the fundamental
equation of motion,

Two blocks are joined by an inextensible
cable as shown. If the system is released
from rest, determine the velocity of block
A after it has moved 2 m. Assume that the
coefficient of friction between block A
and the plane is
k
= 0.25 and that the
pulley is weightless and frictionless.
SOLUTION:
Apply the principle of work and
energy separately to blocks A and B.
When the two relations are combined,
the work of the cable forces cancel.
Solve for the velocity.

Sample Problem 13.3
13 - 21
A spring is used to stop a 60 kg package
which is sliding on a horizontal surface.
The spring has a constant k = 20 kN/m
and is held by cables so that it is initially
compressed 120 mm. The package has a
velocity of 2.5 m/s in the position shown
and the maximum deflection of the spring
is 40 mm.
Determine (a) the coefficient of kinetic
friction between the package and surface
and (b) the velocity of the package as it
passes again through the position shown.
SOLUTION:
Apply the principle of work and energy
between the initial position and the
point at which the spring is fully
compressed and the velocity is zero.
The only unknown in the relation is the
friction coefficient.
Apply the principle of work and energy
for the rebound of the package. The
only unknown in the relation is the
velocity at the final position.

Packages are thrown down an
incline at A with a velocity of 1
m/s. The packages slide along
the surface ABC to a conveyor
belt which moves with a
velocity of 2 m/s. Knowing that

k
= 0.25 between the packages
and the surface ABC, determine
the distance d if the packages
are to arrive at C with a velocity
of 2 m/s.
SOLUTION:
The problem deals with a change in
position and different velocities, so use
work-energy.
Find the kinetic energy at points A
and C.
Determine the work done between
points A and C as a function of d.
Use the work-energy relationship
and solve for d.

Friction forces are not conservative. Total

Sample Problem 13.9
13 - 34
A satellite is launched in a direction
parallel to the surface of the earth
with a velocity of 36900 km/h from
an altitude of 500 km.
Determine (a) the maximum altitude
reached by the satellite, and (b) the
maximum allowable error in the
direction of launching if the satellite
is to come no closer than 200 km to
the surface of the earth
SOLUTION:
For motion under a conservative central
force, the principles of conservation of
energy and conservation of angular
momentum may be applied simultaneously.
Apply the principles to the points of
minimum and maximum altitude to
determine the maximum altitude.
Apply the principles to the orbit insertion
point and the point of minimum altitude to
determine maximum allowable orbit
insertion angle error.

A 20 lb collar slides without friction
along a vertical rod as shown. The
spring attached to the collar has an
undeflected length of 4 in. and a
constant of 3 lb/in.
If the collar is released from rest at
position 1, determine its velocity after
it has moved 6 in. to position 2.

Apply the principle of conservation of
energy between positions 1 and 2.
The elastic and gravitational potential
energies at 1 and 2 are evaluated from
the given information. The initial kinetic
energy is zero.

A section of track for a roller coaster
consists of two circular arcs AB and CD
joined by a straight portion BC. The radius
of CD is 240 ft. The car and its occupants,
of total weight 560 lb, reach Point A with
practically no velocity and then drop freely
along the track. Determine the normal
force exerted by the track on the car at
point D. Neglect air resistance and rolling
resistance.
SOLUTION:
This is two part problem you
will need to find the velocity of
the car using work-energy, and
then use Newtons second law
to find the normal force.
Draw a diagram with the car
at points A and D, and
define your datum. Use
conservation of energy to
solve for v

Impulsive Motion

Force acting on a particle during a very short

significant change in momentum is called an
impulsive force.

When a baseball is struck by a bat, contact


occurs over a short time interval but force is
large enough to change sense of ball motion.
Nonimpulsive forces are forces for which

neglected an example of this is the weight
of the baseball.

Sample Problem 13.14
13 - 64
A ball is thrown against a frictionless,
vertical wall. Immediately before the
ball strikes the wall, its velocity has a
magnitude v and forms angle of 30
o

with the horizontal. Knowing that
e = 0.90, determine the magnitude and
direction of the velocity of the ball as
it rebounds from the wall.
SOLUTION:
Resolve ball velocity into components
normal and tangential to wall.
Impulse exerted by the wall is normal
to the wall. Component of ball
momentum tangential to wall is
conserved.
Assume that the wall has infinite mass
so that wall velocity before and after
impact is zero. Apply coefficient of
restitution relation to find change in
normal relative velocity between wall
and ball, i.e., the normal ball velocity.

Ball B is hanging from an inextensible
cord. An identical ball A is released
from rest when it is just touching the
cord and acquires a velocity v
0
before
striking ball B. Assuming perfectly
elastic impact (e = 1) and no friction,
determine the velocity of each ball
immediately after impact.
SOLUTION:

action.
The momentum component of ball A
tangential to the contact plane is
conserved.
The total horizontal momentum of the
two ball system is conserved.
The relative velocities along the line of
action before and after the impact are
related by the coefficient of restitution.

velocity of ball A along the line of action
and the velocity of ball B which is

Sample Problem 13.17
13 - 72
A 30 kg block is dropped from a height
of 2 m onto the the 10 kg pan of a
spring scale. Assuming the impact to be
perfectly plastic, determine the
maximum deflection of the pan. The
constant of the spring is k = 20 kN/m.
SOLUTION:
Apply the principle of conservation of
energy to determine the velocity of the
block at the instant of impact.
Since the impact is perfectly plastic, the
block and pan move together at the same
velocity after impact. Determine that
velocity from the requirement that the
total momentum of the block and pan is
conserved.
Apply the principle of conservation of
energy to determine the maximum
deflection of the spring.

spring constant k=800 N/m, the coefficient of
friction between A and the ground is 0.2, the
distance A slides from the unstretched length of
the spring d=1.5 m, and the coefficient of
restitution between A and B is 0.8. When o=40
