Crane Problem, Finding Angular Velocity

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the angular velocity components (wx, wy, wz) of a crane's boom in a fixed reference frame. The crane's boom is positioned at a 33-degree angle, rotating with specific angular velocities and accelerations. The user attempts to solve for the angular velocity using the equation w = w1 * w2 and incorporates the acceleration into their calculations. Despite their efforts, the final answer is incorrect, prompting a request for clarification on how to properly account for the crane's acceleration in the equations. The conversation emphasizes the complexities of integrating angular motion and acceleration in dynamic systems.

Homework Statement



At the instant shown in the figure , the crane's boom has an angle = 33.0 and rotates around the vertical axis with angular velocity = 8.00×10^−2 radians/s that increases at the rate = 7.00×10^−2 radians/s^2. At the same instant, the crane's boom is rotating upward with angular velocity = 3.00×10^−2 that increases at the rate = 5.00×10^−2 . Determine wx, wy, and wz, the i, j, and k components of w, the boom's angular velocity in the fixed reference frame X, Y, Z. The translating-rotating reference frame, x, y, z, lines up with the fixed reference frame at the instant shown.

> The figure shows a crane with the z-axis vertical and the y-axis along the cranes boom. The angular velocity are all rotating counterclockwise. The origin is at the center of the crane.

Homework Equations



vp = wp X rp

vp is the velocity at a point
w is the angular velocity
rp is the position of the vector at a point

The Attempt at a Solution



w = w1 * w2 = (.03i + .08k)rad/s
\Omega = .08k rad/s
w = w_{12} + \Omega X w = (.05i + .07k) + .08k X (.03i + .08k)

=0.05i + 0.0024j + 0.07k

That was my final answer but it is wrong.

How are you taking the acceleration of the crane into account?
 
I'm taking into account the acceleration in my equation but the answer is still not correct:

w = + \Omega X w = (.05i + .07k) + .08k X (.03i + .08k)
 
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'
The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
