00:02
In this problem we have this object with this mass that is moving along this arm and the arm is rotating.
00:14
So the polar coordinates that we use to describe the motion of the object are er component and the theta coordinate.
00:28
So we have some information for this theta component.
00:32
We have its value in the theta coordinate.
00:34
This instance, we also have the first derivative.
00:38
So this first derivative, we can rewrite using radiance over second instead of degrees over second.
00:47
For that, we multiply by pi and divide by 180 degrees.
00:52
So doing that, we have that this is pi over four radiance divided by second.
01:01
And this is pi over nine radiance, per second.
01:09
We want to compute the forces that are applied to this object.
01:20
So we have some forces.
01:23
First, the force from the arm that is perpendicular to the arm.
01:28
So this is that force.
01:31
We are going to call it f .a.
01:34
We also have the force due to the walls of the vertical slot.
01:35
So this is that force.
01:35
This is a force.
01:35
We are going to call it f .a.
01:35
We also have the force due to the walls of the vertical slot.
01:39
So as this is a normal force is perpendicular.
01:44
So it's horizontal and we're going to call it f s.
01:51
And we also have the weight of the particle.
01:55
So the weight is m g.
01:59
So basically this is a free body layer, this part here.
02:05
So in order to compute the values of these forces, we need to use the equations of motion.
02:13
So using polar coordinates the equation of motion are these two equations here.
02:20
So for these two equations we just replace the summation of the forces in these directions and use these expressions for the acceleration.
02:33
So as we need our first derivative of r and second derivative of r, let's use the figure to compute these values.
02:46
So first, for r, from the triangle here, this triangle, we can easily check that this r is l over cosine, theta.
03:02
So from here we can compute the value of r.
03:08
So we just need to take the derivative of this expression...
