Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β€” Plane Kinetics of Rigid Bodies: Problem 6_132

6/132 The sector and attached wheels are released from rest in the position shown in the vertical plane. Each wheel is a solid circular disk weighing 12 lb and rolls on the fixed circular path without slipping. The sector weighs 18 lb and is closely approximated by one-fourth of a solid circular disk of 16-in. radius. Determine the initial angular acceleration \(\alpha\) of the sector.

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 12 lb, 18 lb
