Problem 1
Mass of link 1 is 10 kg
The following pages contain:
Length of link 1 (in mm)
Length of link 2 (in mm)
Mass of link 2 (in kg)
Problem 2
The figure shows two boxes (each edge 1 m) and masses A and B kg separated by 10 m. They
are constrained to move in the global X direction. There is no friction between body 2 and
ground. Body 2 moves with a velocity of 10 m/s. A and B are specified in the following pages.
A force is applied on body 1 in the horizontal direction such that it approaches body 2.
This force needs to be controlled with the help of the control kit, so that the distance between
the two bodies varies between 3 and 5 m. Contact between the bodies (if any) needs to be
detected by specifying contact properties.
Plot 3: Distance between the two bodies
Remove the contact property between 2 bodies. Now, tune the force such that bodies do not
come in contact and settle down to a distance in the range of 3 to 5 m.
