The truck drives on a horizontal road with a constant velocity. It eventually halted by a set of crash barrels. The number of barrels and sand within the barrels are arranged in such a way to decelerate the truck at a constant rate. Four test runs are performed where the velocity and mass of the truck are varied. In each of the following situations, the barrels stop the truck in the same amount of time. A v = 10 m/s v = 15 m/s m = 1500 kg m = 1000 kg C D v = 10 m/s v = 5 m/s m = 1000 kg m = 2000 kg Which has the least stopping force?
Consider a simply-supported bridge loaded at the quarter point by a vehicle of 10t (10,000 kg) as shown in Figure 1(b). If the deflection at the loaded point has been measured to be 1.5 mm under a load of 1kN, determine the natural frequency of the bridge. 10 t L/ 4 3L/ 4 Figure 1(b)
Introduction Structural analysis is important for designing all type of structure including truss structure. There are several method to analyse truss structure. Therefore, student should be able to analyse the truss structure with appropriate method. This assignment is given to student to evaluate the ability of the student in solving the complex problem involving truss structure as shown in Figure 1 below.

Note: Q1.(50%): A partially submerged body is towed in water. The resistance force R to its motion depends on the density p, the viscosity u of water, the length L of the body, velocity v of the body and the acceleration due to the gravity g. Show that the resistance of the motion can be expressed in the form: R= pL°v* [ R, IF ]

To unload a tied pile of plywood from a truck, the driver first tilts the truck bed and then accelerates from rest. Knowing that friction coefficients between the bottom plywood layer and the bucket floor are s 0.40 and k 0.30, determine (a) the smallest acceleration of the truck that will cause the plywood pile to slide and (b) the acceleration of the truck that makes corner A of the plywood pile reach the end of the bucket in 0.9 s. I need the calculations and a detailed description substantiated and explaining each step of the calculations. Please. (If you have any way to make it easier to translate, I appreciate it. I can't read very well in english)
Problem 4: A film of oil exists between two horizontal plates spaced 3mm apart. The lower plate is fixed and the upper plate is pulled with a constant velocity. The velocity profile between the two plates is found to have a non- linear profile that is defined as u = (9y - 0.6y?) mm/s where y is in mm. Assuming the top plate has an area of 0.5 m? and the viscosity of the oil is u= 0.437 N.s/m?, determine (a) the shear stress 1mm above the fixed plate, and (b) the force required to pull the upper plate. 2.
