Assignment:
Please solve the following Problem:
A floor trolley has started to pull a rope to the right along the floor at 1 ft/sec. It started at time = 0 and has accelerated to its maximum speed by 1 second. It has travelled 1 foot to the position shown below. It has now drawn all the slack out of the rope and it is ready to pick up a load. It will continue at constant speed (no acceleration) as shown.
It must lift Load "A" up 3 feet so it can be loaded into a pickup truck.
How long does the trolley track need to be and how long will it take from t=0 until the load is lifted 3 feet? Pick a time step that fills one page and plot Velocity of "A" versus time and rate that rope from "B to C" lengthens versus timeon a separate page.
