Consider a system of four identical particles A, B, D, and E, each with a mass of 2.3 kg. These particles are mounted on a wheel of negligible mass whose hub is at O and whose radius is R = 0.75 m. The wheel is mounted on a cart H of negligible mass. Suppose that the wheel is spinning counterclockwise with an angular speed ω = 3 rad/s and that the cart is moving to the right with a speed of υH = 11 m/s. Compute the kinetic energy of the system, using

(a) Eq. (4.71) on p. 305,


(b) Eq. (4.74) on p. 306.

Show that the result is the same in both cases.
