In a nutshell, a smaller rock is propelled into the air as a huge counterweight in the back falls down, effectively converting gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy for the rock and the weight. But, since the rock is smaller.. it is propelled at a much faster velocity! Let's say we wanted to hurl a 50 kg boulder at a castle wall 100 meters away. Our wooden structure for the trebuchet is 10 meters tall, so that is the maximum distance the counterweight can fall. Assuming the launch angle is a perfect 45 degrees, and the boulder is released from ground level, derive the needed mass of the counterweight that will give the boulder enough kinetic energy to reach the base of the castle walls. You may assume no energy is "lost" due to friction, and ALL the counterweight's gravitational potential energy is converted into the boulder's kinetic enerqy. (HINT: You will need to employ 2D kinematics to find the needed final velocity, then use that final velocity in an energy equation…

Problem 4.1 An incompressible liquid with density p is contained in a tank with rigid, vertical walls. The tank is open to the atmosphere on the top and divided into two sections, Side A and Side B. The height h of the liquid and the cross-sectional or foot-print area A on each side of the tank (area perpendicular to the coordinate h) is shown in the figure. There is a hole in the partition and the liquid can flow freely between the two sides. Assume that the system is the mass of liquid in both tanks. hA AA a) Draw a system diagram. b) Write an equation for the mass of the system, msys, in terms of the given information. One approach is to find mys, and msys, separately and then add them together to find msys. Your answer should only contain symbols.
