7. A horizontal force of 810 N and a counterclockwise couple-moment M are applied to the axle of pulley A, which is supported by a roller. The coefficient of static friction between the flat belt and each pulley is (mu = 0.4). The radius of each pulley is 40 mm. Determine the maximum value of M and the corresponding tensions in belt segments AB and AB'. Answers must be supported with relevant free-body diagrams and equilibrium equations.

Step 1
Given: μ = 0.4, α = 180°, radius = 0.04 m Using the formula: T_AB / T_AB' = μ * α Substitute the values: T_AB / T_AB' = 0.4 * π Calculate: T_AB / T_AB' = 1.2566 Show more…

A string that passes over a pulley has a $0.321-\mathrm{kg}$ mass attached to one end and a $6.635-$ -kg mass attached to the other end. The pulley, which is a disk of radius $9.40 \mathrm{cm},$ has friction in its axle. What is the magnitude of the frictional torque that must be exerted by the axle if the system is to be in static equilibrium?
A pulley consists of two concentric disks of radii R2 = 0.400 m and R1 = 3R2 that are welded together. The disks are equipped with a smooth, horizontal axle through their centres of mass, as shown. The moment of inertia of the pulley about the axle is 40 kg·m². Thin strings are wound around both disks and blocks of mass m1 and m2 are suspended as shown. (a) If m1 = 10 kg, find m2 such that the angular acceleration of the pulley is zero. For parts (b) and (c), assume that m1 = 36 kg and m2 = 72 kg. The moment of inertia of the pulley is still 40 kg·m². The pulley-blocks system is released from rest. (b) For these values of the masses, the system is no longer in static equilibrium. Let a1 be the magnitude of acceleration of m1 and a2 that of m2. Write down the kinematical relation between a1 and a2. (c) Use the second law (ΣF = ma and Στ = Iα) to determine the acceleration a1 of m1 and the tension T1 in the string attached to m1. (If instead you use conservation of energy (or, work-energy theorem), you’ll still be eligible for full credit.)
