In the given pulley system, the distance traveled by Collar A is defined by the function yA = 0.08?3 + 15?−3? sin (16?) while the distance traveled by Collar B is defined as yB = 0.055?4 + 2e−0.5? sin(−2?) where y is expressed in inches, t is time in seconds, and the angles are in radians. If Block C weighs W = 134 pound-force and is being pulled down by a force P = 69 pound-force, determine the tension in the cable at time t = 4.012 seconds. At the said instant, Collar A is moving upwards while Collar B is moving downwards. Collars A and B have negligible mass. Also, the velocity and acceleration functions for A and B only account for magnitudes.

Question

In the given pulley system, the distance traveled by Collar A is defined by the function yA = 0.08?3 + 15?−3? sin (16?) while the distance traveled by Collar B is defined as yB = 0.055?4 + 2e−0.5? sin(−2?) where y is expressed in inches, t is time in seconds, and the angles are in radians. If Block C weighs W = 134 pound-force and is being pulled down by a force P = 69 pound-force, determine the tension in the cable at time t = 4.012 seconds. At the said instant, Collar A is moving upwards while Collar B is moving downwards. Collars A and B have negligible mass. Also, the velocity and acceleration functions for A and B only account for magnitudes.
