Question
A ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed of 86 ft/sec from the base A of a cliff with H = 63 ft. Determine the distance h by which the ball clears the top of the cliff and the time t after release for the ball to land at B. Also, calculate the magnitude of the impact velocity vB. Neglect air resistance and the small horizontal motion of the ball.

- PROBLEM 12.20 The flat-bed trailer carries two 1500-kg beams with the upper beam secured by a cable. The coefficients of static friction between the two beams and between the lower beam and the bed of the trailer are 0.25 and 0.30, respectively. Knowing that the load does not shift, determine (a) the maximum acceleration of the trailer and the corresponding tension in the cable, (b) the maximum deceleration of the trailer.arrow_forwardA ball is thrown upward at 75m/s from the top of a 40 m tall building.

At this point, determine the rate of increase in speed and the normal force which the slope exerts on the toboggan. Neglect the size of the toboggan and rider for the calculation. v=5m/s/ y=0.08.² 10 marrow_forwardpositive stationary splitter, 6-27E A 100-ft/s water jet is moving in the x-direction at 18 ft/s. The stream hits a such that half of the flow is diverted upward at 45° and the other half is directed downward, and both streams have a final speed of 18 ft/s. Disregarding gravitational effects, and approximating the flow as uniform at any cross section, determine the x- and z-components of the force required to hold the splitter in place against the water force.
