a. Consider a parabolic cam profile consisting of a rise-dwell-return-dwell cycle where the rise-cycle to full lift (L= 0.33 in) occurs over a 60° segment of shaft rotation. The shaft is turning at a constant speed of 100rpm. What is the velocity, acceleration and jerk of the follower at the mid-point of the rise-cycle?

b. If the profile was now changed to a simple harmonic profile, what is the velocity, acceleration and jerk of the follower at the mid-point of the rise-cycle?

c. If the profile was now changed to a cycloidal profile, what is the velocity, acceleration and jerk of the follower at the mid-point of the rise-cycle?

A single-dwell cam will do the following profile: rise 5 inches for 90 degree, return 5 inches for 90 degree, dwell 180 degree. Generate the displacment, velocity, acceleration, and jerk curves three times using simple harmonic, cycloidal, and eighth order polynomials for both rise and return. Discuss which result is best given your analysis of the three sets of acceleration and jerk curves.

Design a cam for a rise-return-dwell (RRD) application using the fourth order polynomial. The position, velocity, and acceleration should be zero at the beginning of the rise h, and the velocity should be zero at the end of the rise. Plot s, v, a, and j profiles for BOTH fourth and fifth order polynomials using EXCEL. (Note: this is to all be done by hand in regards to the fourth and fifth order polynomial. Only Excel can be used for...

Consider a simple electrostatic capacitor constructed from two electrodes consisting of perfect conductors, where the electric charge Q on the positively-charged conductor is related to the potential difference V between the electrodes by Q=CV. Suppose the potential difference V of the capacitor is held fixed, by attaching its electrodes via very thin, perfectly conducting leads to the terminals of an ideal battery. Define a free energy G for the capacitor, such that dG=đW for work done by the external agent...

What negative effects have resulted from the material changes? Consider the full material life cycle. Would it actually be more sustainable from an environmental, economic, and/or social perspective to return to materials that were used in the past? Why or why not?
