HW#1, Due: 10/30 (Monday BEFORE class)

Use odd number problems if your student number ends with odd number and vise versa.

12.198 If the end of the cable at A is pulled down with a speed of 5 m/s, determine the speed at
which block B rises.

12.205 If the block A of the pulley system is moving downward at 6 ft/s while block C is moving
down at 18 ft/s, determine the relative velocity of block B with respect to C.

12.218 Two planes, A and B, are flying at the same altitude. If their velocities are vA= 500 km/h
and vB=700 km/h such that the angle between their straight-line courses is =60, determine the
velocity of plane B with respect to plane A.

12.219 At the instant shown, cars A and B are traveling at speeds of 55 mi/h and 40 mi/h,
respectively. If B is increasing its speed by 1200 mi/h2, while A maintains a constant speed,
determine the velocity and acceleration of B with respect to A. Car B moves along a curve having
a radius of curvature of 0.5 mi.
