Q1
A plow located on the front of a truck scoops up a
liquid slush at the rate of 12 ft/s and throws it off
perpendicular to its motion, 6 90°. If the truck is
traveling at a constant speed of 14 ft/s, determine the
resistance to motion caused by the shoveling. The specific
weight of the slush is y, = 5.5 lb/ft.

The motor M of the hoist operates with an efficiency of ε = 0.7. Determine the power in watt (W) that must be supplied to the motor to lift the crate C (250kg) at the instant point P on the cable has an acceleration of 3 m/s2, and a velocity of 2 m/s. Please see details below. Rounding numbers to 2 decimal places at the end.
Gravity (the acceleration due to gravity) is 9.81 meters per second squared. g = 9.81 m/s2
A block with a weight of 5 kg hanging from the ceiling attached to a spring is raised and then
pulled downward. As it passes downward through the spring's unstretched position it has a speed
of 10 m/s downward. If the spring has a stiffness of 5 N/m, determine the maximum position below
the spring's unstretched position achieved by the block.
