Q1: A 10 kg body falls from rest with negligible interaction with its surroundings (no friction). Determine its velocity after it falls 3.8 m. Use the 1st Law of Thermo to solve this problem. You may use your knowledge of kinematics or dynamics to verify your solution but the solution must be derived from the 1st Law equation. Ans. 8.64 m/s

At present the spent rods are winched up from the pool and then lowered into concrete barrels in a second pool. When it is positioned properly the winch is released and the rod is allowed to drop in. The following calculation is based on data gathered from the present set up. Time taken to lowered into concrete barrels = 10 Seconds Winch drum diameter = 0.9m Mass of load = 185 kg Initial velocity = 0 m/s Distance travelled = 6m You have been asked to use this information to determine: The final linear velocity of the load The linear acceleration of the load The final angular velocity of the drum The angular acceleration of the drum The tension force in the cable The torque applied to the drum In determining the above quantities, you should clearly state the formulae used and apply dimensional analysis techniques to show that all values/units used…arrow_forwardA hammer has a speed of 8.0 m/s just before it strikes a 0.015 kg iron nail horizontally, using its 1.2 kg head. Assuming the nail absorbs all of the energy from the hammer, how much would the temperature of the nail rise if the hammer hit the nail 8 times in quick succession? Enter your answer in either K or °C. (Since it's a change in temperature, these units are identical.) J kg.K The heat capacity of iron is 450-arrow_forward

A 3.4-kip car speeds up uniformly from 0 to 57 mph in 39 seconds up the 15⁰ incline. If the engine has an efficiency of e = 0.73, what is the power input (in hp) when the car's speed reaches that final speed? (1 hp = 550 ft-lb/s) Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Your answer must include 1 place after the decimal point. Take g = 32.2 ft/s².

- Solve the problem correctly in handwritten format.arrow_forward+51 suspension You are an engineer designing the suspension of an ATV. You want to ensure that the vehicle doesn't "bottom out" even when landing from being airborne. An approximation describing the vertical acceleration of the suspension upon impact is I a(s) 9.8(1 12s) m/s² where the initial velocity at impact is v=1.5 m/s with the spring initially uncompressed, s = 0 m A) What is the vertical velocity of the ATV chassis after the spring is compressed 0.1 m? B) What is the maximum distance the spring gets compressed? (This occurs when the ATV's vertical motion comes momentarily to rest)arrow_forwardF(t) Force_Crate Known values: Mass of Block 68 kg TT Hs μk 0 0.63 0.53 26° Problem Statement: A crate is initially at rest on a sloped surface, when a force is applied: F(t) where t is in seconds. Answers: When t=44.47 seconds, the crate has not yet started moving. Find the magnitude of the friction force at that time: 317.771 N The direction of the friction force at that time is: down the slope Find the time required for the crate to start moving: Find the crate's speed when t=174.9 s: 9.485 m/s Be sure to include units with your answers. 169.756 S 240+0.2 N,arrow_forward
