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

VA=8V_A = 8 B

A

222\sqrt{2}

B

242\sqrt{4}

C

232\sqrt{3}

D

424\sqrt{2}

Answer

42m/s4\sqrt{2} \, \text{m/s}

Explanation

Solution

  1. In pure rolling, the center speed is vv and the wheel's angular speed is ω=vR\omega = \frac{v}{R}.

  2. The top point (A) has speed:

    VA=v+ωR=v+v=2v.V_A = v + \omega R = v + v = 2v.
  3. Given VA=8m/sV_A = 8 \, \text{m/s}, we have 2v=82v = 8 so v=4m/sv = 4 \, \text{m/s}.

  4. For point B (at the rightmost point), its velocity is the vector sum of the center speed vv (horizontal rightward) and the rotational contribution ωR=4m/s\omega R = 4 \, \text{m/s} (vertical upward, due to clockwise rotation).

  5. Thus, the speed of B is:

    VB=42+42=16+16=32=42m/s.V_B = \sqrt{4^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{16 + 16} = \sqrt{32} = 4\sqrt{2} \, \text{m/s}.
