Wheel is in pure rolling find speed. of point B, it speed of A is 8 m/s
VA=8 B

A
22
B
24
C
23
D
42
Answer
42m/s
Explanation
Solution
-
In pure rolling, the center speed is v and the wheel's angular speed is ω=Rv.
-
The top point (A) has speed:
VA=v+ωR=v+v=2v. -
Given VA=8m/s, we have 2v=8 so v=4m/s.
-
For point B (at the rightmost point), its velocity is the vector sum of the center speed v (horizontal rightward) and the rotational contribution ωR=4m/s (vertical upward, due to clockwise rotation).
-
Thus, the speed of B is:
VB=42+42=16+16=32=42m/s.
