A series of small machine components being moved by a conveyor belt pass over a 120-mm-radius idler pulley. At the instant shown, the velocity of point A is 300 mm/s to the left and its acceleration is 180 mm/s2to the right. Determine (a) the angular velocity and angular acceleration of the idler pulley, (b) the total acceleration of the machine component at B.
A series of small machine components being moved by a conveyor belt pass over a 120-mm-radius idler pulley. At the instant shown, the angular velocity of the idler pulley is 4 rad/s clockwise. Determine the angular acceleration of the pulley for which the magnitude of the total acceleration of the machine component at B is 2400 mm/s2.
