Proposed Exercise - Circular Movement Consider four pulleys connected by correals as illustrated in the figure below. One motor moves the A pulley with angular acceleration A= 20 rad/s^2/. If pulley A is initially moving with angular acceleration A= 40 rad/s^2, determine the angular speed of pulleys B and C after three seconds. Consider that the belts do not slide

ωB = 300 rad/s

ωC = 600 rad/s

Explanation:

The linear velocity of the belt is the same at pulley A as it is at pulley D.

vA = vD

ωA rA = ωD rD

ωD = (rA / rD) ωA

Pulley B has the same angular velocity as pulley D.

ωB = ωD

The linear velocity of the belt is the same at pulley B as it is at pulley C.

vB = vC

ωB rB = ωC rC

ωC = (rB / rC) ωB

Given:

ω₀A = 40 rad/s

αA = 20 rad/s²

t = 3 s

Find: ωA

ω = αt + ω₀

ωA = (20 rad/s²) (3 s) + 40 rad/s

ωA = 100 rad/s

ωD = (rA / rD) ωA = (75 mm / 25 mm) (100 rad/s) = 300 rad/s

ωB = ωD = 300 rad/s

ωC = (rB / rC) ωB = (100 mm / 50 mm) (300 rad/s) = 600 rad/s
