Question

The cable is drawn into the motor with an acceleration of 7 m/s2 determine the time needed for the load at b to attain a speed of 10 m/s, starting from rest.

Answer 1

1.43 seconds Assuming that cable is directly in line with the load, you can determine how long it takes by dividing the desired velocity by the acceleration. So t = 10 m/s / 7 m/s^2 = 1.43 s So it takes 1.43 seconds for the load to reach a velocity of 10 m/s
