When a rigid body is in a planar motion, all its particles move along paths that remain at a constant distance from a specified plane.
The planar body …
When a rigid body rotates about a fixed axis, any given point within that body moves in a circular path around a specified line or point.
This type of …
Imagine a propelling drone hovering in the air. The motion of a drone can be analyzed using the principle of general planar motion.
As the propellers of …
A stroke engine has a slider-crank mechanism that converts rotational motion from the crank into linear motion of the slider or vice versa.
As the crank …
The motion of a rigid body in a general plane occurs due to externally applied forces and couple moments acting upon it.
Newton's second law gives the …
Consider a lawn roller of mass 100 kg, a radius of 0.2 meters, and a radius of gyration of 0.15 meters. If a force of 200 N is applied with an angle of 60 …
Consider a wheel in general planar motion. The absolute velocity of point B is expressed as the vector sum of the absolute velocity of point A and the …
In a slider-crank mechanism, the motion is not uniform due to the varying angle between the crank and the connecting rod.
The motion of segment AB can be …
Consider member AB undergoing linear motion and simultaneous rotation about point A. The velocity of point B is expressed as the sum of the velocity of …
Two apparatuses for examining liquid jet impingement on a high-speed moving surface are described: an air cannon device (for examining surface speeds …
Proprioceptive drift, which is a perceptual shift in body-part position from the unseen real body to a visible body-like image, has been measured as the …
In this work we describe a technique for creating new crystals (van der Waals heterostructures) by stacking distinct ultrathin layered 2D materials. We …
