A non-uniform rod XY of mass 40 kg and length 5.0 m lines on the horizontal ground. Its centre of gravity is 2.0 metres from the end X .Calculate the vertical Force P that will just be sufficient to lift the end Y from the ground. Why would the force P, is applied at the end X not be sufficient to lift the end X from the ground? (g=10.0 ms^-2)

-a plank XY 3.0m long weighing 20 kg and with its centre of gravity 2.0m from the end A carries a load mass 10 kg at the end A. It rests on two support at C and D.

a)Compute the values of the reaction forces R1 R2 at C and D.

b) How far from D ,and on which side of it must the mass of 24 kg placed on the plank so as to make the reactions equal ? ,What are their values.

c)Without this 24kg ,what vertical Force applied at we will just leave the plank clear of D? What is then the reaction at C?

What is work? how much work is done to move an object 0 meters?

Aplane flies a distance d from west to east at a constant speed vp , with respect to the air in a time twe . on the return trip, the plane flies a distance d from east to west at a constant speed vp , with respect to the air in a time tew . on both trips the wind blows from west to east at a constant speed va , with respect to the ground 1) what is tew in terms of vp, va, and d, as needed? tew=dvp tew=dvp+va tew=dva tew=dvpâ’va tew=12dvp tew=12dvp+va tew=12dvpâ’va your submissions: b submitted: saturday, january 26 at 6: 49 pm feedback: feedback will be given once all questions have been attempted and the grade cluster button has been pressed. 2) what is twe in terms of vp, va, and d, as needed? twe=dvp twe=dvp+va twe=dva twe=dvpâ’va twe=12dvp twe=12dvp+va twe=12dvpâ’va your submissions: d submitted: saturday, january 26 at 6: 49 pm feedback: feedback will be given once all questions have been attempted and the grade cluster button has been pressed. 3) assuming d = 2300 miles, vp = 400 miles/hr, and twe = 4 hours, what is va, the speed of the wind with respect to the ground? va = 100 miles/hr va = 575 miles/hr va = 200 miles/hr va = 175 miles/hr va = 975 miles/hr 4) once again, assuming d = 2300 miles, vp = 400 miles/hr, and twe = 4 hours, what is tew, the time it takes the plane to fly a distance d miles from east to west? tew = 5.75 hours tew = 11.5 hours tew = 7.67 hours tew = 8 hours tew = 10.2 hours

The space between two 15-in.-long concentric cylinders is filled with glycerin (viscosity = 8.5 × 10-3 lb·s/ft2). the inner cylinder has a radius of 1 in. and the gap width between cylinders is 0.1 in. determine (a) the torque and (b) the power required to rotate the inner cylinder at 180 rev/min. the outer cylinder is fixed. assume the velocity distribution in the gap to be linear.
