Figure 12-65ashows a uniform ramp between two buildings that allows for motion between the buildings due to strong winds.At its left end, it is hinged to the building wall; at its right end, it has a roller that can roll along the building wall. There is no vertical force on the roller from the building, only a horizontal force with magnitude Fh. The horizontal distance between the buildings is D=4.00m. The rise of the ramp isD=4.00m. A man walks across the ramp from the left. Figure 12-65bgives Fhas a function of the horizontal distance xof the man from the building at the left. The scale of the Fhaxis is set by a= 20kN and b=25kN. What are the masses of (a) the ramp and (b) the man?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) Mass of the ramp is 500kg.

b) Mass of the man is 62.5kg.

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities

Distance between buildings(D)=4.0m

h=0.490m

Atx=0,Fh=20kN(103鈥塏1鈥塳狈)=2.0104鈥塏

Atx=4.0,Fh=25kN(103鈥塏1鈥塳狈)=2.5104鈥塏

02

Understanding the concept of force

We find the length of the ramp first, using trigonometry (Pythagoras theorem). After finding the length, we take the value for the horizontal force at the displacement of the man on the ramp. Using those conditions, we find the mass of the man and the ramp.

Formula:

Manypointonthebeam=0

Weight=mg

Length of the ramp from Pythagoras theorem,

L=D2+h2=(4.0m)2+(0.49m)2=16.24m2=4.03m

tan=hD=(0.494.0)=6.98

03

(a) Calculation ofthe mass of the ramp

Taking moment at the hinge point and assumingx=0,

Mx=0=0

(WeightoframpL2cos6.98)-(Fh0.490m)=0(WeightoframpL2脳肠辞蝉6.98)=(Fh0.490m)Weightoframp=(2脳贵h脳0.490鈥尘)L脳肠辞蝉6.98掳mrampg=(2脳贵h脳0.490鈥尘)L脳肠辞蝉6.98掳

mramp=(2脳贵h脳0.490鈥尘)g脳L脳肠辞蝉6.98掳=(22.0104N0.490m)9.8m/s24.0mcos6.98=500kg

Mass of the ramp is 500kg.

04

(b) Calculation ofthe mass of the man

Taking moment at the hinge point and assuming x = 2 m,

From the graph, we can say that
At鈥墄=2,Fh=2.25104N

=0

((weightoframp+weightofman)2鈥尘)(Fh0.490鈥尘)=0

((500kg9.8m/s2)+(mman9.8m/s2))2m=(2.25104N0.490m)4900N+mman9.8m/s2=5512Nmman9.8m/s2=612Nmman=612N9.8m/s2mman=62.5kg

Mass of the man is 62.5kg.
