14–31. Marbles having a mass of 5 g are dropped from rest at A | Engineering Mechanics Dynamics

In this video, we tackle problem 14-31 from Hibbeler's Engineering Mechanics Dynamics (14th Edition), Chapter 14: Kinetics of a Particle: Work and Energy.

The Problem:
14–31. Marbles having a mass of 5 g are dropped from rest at A through the smooth glass tube and accumulate in the can at C. Determine the placement R of the can from the end of the tube and the speed at which the marbles fall into the can. Neglect the size of the can.
