Question

The 2-kg spool S fits loosely on the inclined rod for which the coefficient of static friction is p,-0.2. If the spool is located 0.25 m from A, determine the maximum

constant speed the spool can have so that it does not slip up the rod. Ans: N = 28.85 N, v = 1.48 m/s Hints: 1) Solve for max linear speed of "S" and 2) As you draw your FBD kinetic diagrams, think closely about the direction of the axes for the spool particle. Are they based on the arm's geometry or the path of spool "s"? 0.25
