General Instructions: Read and understand each situational problem given below. Put a box on your final answers. Show
clearly all pertinent solutions and state the assumptions made, if any. Any form of intellectual dishonesty will be
strictly penalized. SUBMIT YOUR ANSWER SHEET ON OR BEFORE 12 NOON TOMORROW (April 1,

Problem 1
The 30 kg pendulum has its mass center at G and a
radius of gyration about point G of kG = 300 mm.
The spring attached has a stiffness k = 300 N/m
and is unstretched when = 0. It is released from
rest when = 60. At that instant,
a.) [30%] Draw the FBD = EFD of the pendulum.
Label all vectors and their respective directions
properly.
b.) [30%] Determine the angular acceleration of the
pendulum.
c.) [20%] Determine the reactions at O.
d.) [20%] Determine the acceleration of point A.

Problem 2
A spring with stiffness k = 20
N/m is attached to the
geometric center C of a 50 kg
homogenous disk rolling on a
rough inclined surface
(s=0.20, k=0.10) as shown.
The radius of the disk is 0.2
m. The spring is unstreched
at Position 1 when a constant clockwise moment M = 15 N-m is applied to it. Consider
Position 2 when the disk is 0.6 m down the incline.
a.) [40%] Draw the FBD = EFD of the disk at Position 2. Label all vectors and their respective
directions properly.
b.) [40%] Determine whether the disk is rolling without slipping or not. (HINT: how much
friction is developed?)
c.) [20%] Determine the corresponding acceleration of point C.
