Q3. (Marks 40/200)
Figure Q3 shows a 10Mg front-end-loader used to move Ore in the loader bucket. The centres of mass (CM) for
the front-end-loader and the Ore load at G and GL respectively.
I. Determine the reactions exerted by the ground on the pairs of wheels at A and B, if the front-end-loader
is moving forward at a constant acceleration of 1.6 m/s 2 from the rest. The Ore Load is 2.5Mg and the CM
(GL) is at height h = 3.5 m and x = 2.0 m (from the centre of front wheel A). (20 Marks)
II. The front-end-loader with a 1 Mg Ore Load CM (GL) at h = 2.85 m and x= 2.6 m is moving forward at a
constant velocity of 40 km/hr. Can the front-end-loader completely come to a rest safely without tipping
over, if the operator suddenly applied brakes? Assume that all wheels are locked when the brakes are
applied and the coefficient of static friction between the wheels and the ground is 0.55. MEC2401 に Dynamics Study Paper.(20 Marks)
