Question 1

a) At the instant shown in Figure Q1a, the left disk has a counter-clockwise angular velocity
of 3 rad/s and a clockwise angular acceleration of 1 rad/s

Question 3

The slender rod AB has a mass of 10 kg and is released from rest when
o
0 = u . A cable is
attached to the end B of the rod and connected to the block D. The block D has a mass of 4
kg. The mass of the cable and the pulley at C can be neglected.
