Hi!
I have Pytel Mechanics Dynamics 2nd edition and revising for my own purposes (not a homework).
I am trying to solve problem 12.4:
A bead moves along a straight 1500-mm wire that lies along the x-axis. The position of the bead
is given by
x=t2 - 10t mm
where x is measured from the center of the wire, and t is the time in seconds. Determine
a) the time when the bead leaves the wire; and b) the distance traveled by the bead from t=0 until
it leaves the wire
I get (a) to be 32.83sec which is correct according to even-numbered answers given at the back of the
book but (b) is given to be 2000mm which is not what I get. I get 800mm
Can you verify if my answer to (b) is correct or tell me what is your answer of (b)?
Does anyone has all the answers of the book I mentioned?
thanks
