Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics and Dynamics

Two transmission belts pass over a double-sheaved pulley that is attached
to an axle supported by bearings at $A$ and $D$. The radius of the inner
sheave is $125 \mathrm{mm}$ and the radius of the outer sheave is $250 \mathrm{mm}$. Knowing that when the system is at rest, the tension is $90 \mathrm{N}$ in both portions of belt $B$ and $150 \mathrm{N}$ in both portions of belt $C$, determine the reactions at $A$ and $D .$ Assume that the bearing at $D$ does not exert any axial thrust.

a. Find the velocity and speed of the object.
b. Find the acceleration of the object.
$$\mathbf{r}(t)=\langle 13 \cos 2 t, 12 \sin 2 t, 5 \sin 2 t\rangle, \text { for } 0 \leq t \leq \pi$$

Calculus for Scientists and Engineers: Early Transcendental

Consider the following position functions $\mathbf{r}$ and $\mathbf{R}$ for two objects.
a. Find the interval $[c, d]$ over which the R trajectory is the same as the r trajectory over $[a, b]$
b. Find the velocity for both objects.
c. Graph the speed of the two objects over the intervals $[a, b]$ and $[c, d],$ respectively.
$$\begin{aligned}
&\mathbf{r}(t)=\left\langle t, t^{2}\right\rangle,[a, b]=[0,2]\\
&\mathbf{R}(t)=\left\langle 2 t, 4 t^{2}\right\rangle \text { on }[c, d]
\end{aligned}$$
