The graph below shows the force exerted by an engine during the 1.0 second from when it is ignited until when the fuel is completely bumed. a) What is the impulse of this rocket engine? F(N) 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 b) One of these engines is put horizontally on a frictionless cart of mass 780 g so that it will accelerate the cart. How fast will the cart be going after the engine has burned all of its fuel? The mass of the engine itself is small enough that we can ignore it.

2) Two objects with equal mass and equal and opposite velocity collide with each other. Find the relationship between angle of impact and absolute impulse experienced by each object. Note any angles that have special characteristics. This is an abstract problem where we will derive a general solution valid for any two masses, any two equal and opposite initial velocities and any angle of impact. You may assume the shape of the object plays no part in the outcome of the collision.
A1) Floodgates, also known as stop gates, are adjustable gates that restrict the flow of water in flood barriers, reservoirs, rivers, and stream systems. Floodgates prevent river water from backing up into cities during high water levels. 5 m 160° B Figure 1: Floodgate As an aerospace engineer with a solid foundation in fluid mechanics, you would like to propose a temporary design solution to mitigate the damage or disruption of a nearby airport runway flood. The floodgate is 3 m wide and 5 m long, with a solid gate (AB) hinged at point B and restrained by a force-pulley mechanism at point A. The value of mass P is 2500 kg.

Question 11) Roger gave the following account of a roller-coaster ride: 1 tried a brand-new ride at a science centre. There's a computer screen that tells you how much the car and the people in it weigh and how high and fast you travel. You get into the car and they strap you in. The car weighs 600 kg. At the top, it moves horizontally at a speed of 1 m/s. Then you drop 30 m, make a loop into the air and finish by riding over an 8-m hill. I don't remember our maximum speed or our speed at the top of the loop, but the ride was fantastic!" Answer the following questions without taking the force of friction into consideration. Show your calculations for each question. A v=1 m/s 20 m 8 m a) What is the highest speed Roger could have attained? What is the potential energy of the roller-coaster car when it is at the top of the b) loop? c) What is the kinetic energy of the car as it passes over the top of the 8 m hill? d) What is the total mechanical energy of the system?

1. Do a project research based on this topic. Gas turbines are used for many purposes from aeroplane engines to industrial electric power generating sets. They are at the heart of most jet engines but also for propeller driven engines. Hence, do a mechanical report on operation for gas turbine plant and justify its operation.
Water accelerated by a nozzle to 35 m/s strike the vertical back surface of a cart moving horizontal at a constant velocity of 10m/s in the flow direction.the mass flow rate of water through the stationary nozzle is 30kg/s.After the strike, the water stream splatters off in all directions in the plane of the surface. a)Determine the force that needs to be applied by the brakes of the cart to prevent it from accelerating. b)if this force were used to generate power instead of waisting it on the brakes, determine the maximum amount of power that could ideally be generated
1. You are setting up for a pool party that has a 2.5 m high slide that launches swimmers into the pool. To make it more exciting, you decide to string a steamer across the pool so that the swimmers just clear it at their maximum height after leaving the slide. The end of the slide is 0.75 m above the ground and is directed 20° above the horizontal. By watching people use the slide, you know the horizontal distance to place the streamer, so you only need to determine the maximum height. You are also curious how fast the swimmers are going when they enter the pool. In your estimates, you can assume that the swimmer starts at rest at the top of the slide and ignore friction on the slide and air resistance. 2.5 m 0.75 m streamer If the angle of the slide were different (say 15°) would either the maximum height or the speed when entering the water be different? Note: Use conservation of energy to answer these questions.

6.2 In class we noted that the potential energy of a spring is given by Vsp (2) and k the spring constant. Now consider an object of mass m (not attached to the spring) that drops from rest, from a height z; > z0; onto the spring (which is initially in equilibrium at its rest length). Both the gravitational force and the spring force now contribute to the potential energy, initial final k(z – zo)²/2, where zo is the spring's equilibrium point E Zo Z=0 Vgrav Vgrav + Vsp if z z0 V (2) = (1) (a) Sketch (by hand, but carefully) a potential energy diagram for V(2) as a function of height z.
