Question 1

the object's velocity from -1m/s to 7m/s?
Questions 2, 3 and 4

Two cables are attached to the front bumper

of a car (750 kg) which is being towed. If each
cable is able to withstand a force of 200 N
before breaking...
4. what force is required to put maximum
tension on the cable?
5. What is the maximum forward acceleration
that can be achieved if friction is neglected?
6. If the car continued at a constant
acceleration found in (5), how far would it
have moved in 20s if it started at rest?

Question 5

What is the moment of inertia about the knee if a knee extensor moment of 38
N.m causes an angular acceleration of 178 rad/s2?

Question 6
Calculate the moment required to give an object with a moment of inertia of 18
kg.m2 a radial acceleration of 0.75 m/s2 and a total linear acceleration of 1.75
m/s2. (radius = 0.5m)

Question 7
Calculate the tension in the string of a pendulum that has a mass 0.22 kg if it has
an angular velocity of 1.61 rad/s at point B. (radius = 0.5m)

Question 8

What is the reaction force of the bars on the gymnast’s

hands, given her mass is 45 kg and her accelerations
are ax = 30 m/s2 and ay = 20 m/s2?

Question 9
Use the following free body diagram to find the net joint moment (M) if Rx = 25 N,
Ry = 10 N, the moment of inertia about the CofG is 0.23 Kg.m2 and the angular
acceleration is -37 rad/s2.

Question 10

m1 is supported by a rope with tension of

magnitude T (N), and m2 is being dragged
horizontally across the top of a table such
that friction opposes the tension in the rope
(T).If the coefficient of kinetic friction
between m2 and the table is 0.3, find the
tension in the rope.

Question 11
A skier starts at rest on the top of a high hill. If the skier's instantaneous velocity at
the base of the hill (A) is 22.15 m/s, what is the time needed for the skier to slide
to a stop (B) if the coefficient of sliding friction is 0.125 and the deceleration is
assumed to be constant?

Question 12

Find the tension in the cable, the net joint moment (M) and joint reaction forces
at the elbow required to accelerate load upward at 12.4 m/s2. Assume the
moment of inertia of the forearm and hand segment is 0.062 kg.m2 and the
mass is 2.8 kg. The angular acceleration is 86 rad/s2 and ax = -9.90 m/s2 and ay
= -7.46m/s2. The location of the cofG of the segment is at (0 , 0.14) and the
handle is located at (0 , 0.28) and the elbow is at (0 , 0)
