Rotation. Preliminary Problem. Axis Fixed.—Forclearness in subsequent matter we now consider the following. DYNAMICS OF A RIGID BODY. 109 simple case. Fig. 124 shows a rigid body, consisting of adrum, an axle, a projecting arm, allof which are imponderable, and asingle material point, whose weightis G and mass M. An imponderableflexible cord, in which the tension iskept constant and = P, unwindsfrom the drum. The axle coincideswith the vertical axis Z, while the cord FlG. 124> is always parallel to Y. Initially (, when t = 0) M lies atrest in the plane ZY. Required its position at the end of anytime t (, at any instant) and also the reactions of the bearingsat 0 and Ox, supposing no vertical pressure to exist at Ox, andthat P and J^are at the same level. No friction. At any in-stant the eight unknowns, a, go, 6, X0, Y0, Z0, Xx, and Yx, maybe found from the six equations formed by putting 2X, etc
