Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β Kinetics of Systems of Particles: Problem 4_90
4/90 The chain of length \( L \) and mass \( \rho \) per unit length is released from rest on the smooth horizontal surface with a negligibly small overhang \( x \) to initiate motion. Determine (a) the acceleration \( a \) as a function of \( x \), (b) the tension \( T \) in the chain at the smooth corner as a function of \( x \), and (c) the velocity \( v \) of the last link \( A \) as it reaches the corner.
π Solution Approach
Find: (a) the acceleration \; (b) the tension \; (c) the velocity \
