A man is standing on a board on a frozen lake where there is no friction between the board and the ice surface. Tha man's mass is 2 m and the boaf's mass is 4 m. The board has length L. He walks from 1/5 Lfrom the left end of the board to 1/5 L from the right end of the board. How far and in which direction does the board move during this process?

The weight of the cylindrical tank is negligible in comparison to the weight of water it contains (water weighs 62.4lb/ft3). The coefficient of static friction between the tank and the horizontal surface is s. (a) Assuming a full tank, find the smallest force P required to tip the tank, and the smallest s that would allow tipping to take place. (b) If the force P = 200 lb initiates tipping, determine the depth of water in the tank.
Let us say that we have a ladder with its own length (L) and its own mass (m) this ladder just so happens to make a (θ) degree angle with a wall. The center of mass of this ladder is 1/3 of the way up from the bottom (it gets narrower towards the top). A person of mass M then decides to climb the ladder until he comes to the halfway point. Wall has no friction but the ground has on the ladder.. a) Draw this situation and label forces so you may set up the statics equations. b) Find the force on the ladder due to the ground (both x and y components) and the force on the ladder due to the wall.
Two circular platforms are attached to a fluid reservoir. On one platform rests seventeen baby armadillos.. A force of 3.4 N is applied downward to the empty platform with radius 9.8 m. The area of the other platform has radius 2.3 m. How much force is applied to the platform with the armadillos?
A person wearing long snowshoes can walk across a blanket of freshly fallen snow without sinking far into the snow because (p.s. Google snowshoe if you don't know how one looks like) snowshoes cover a larger area than a foot and so the pressure is reduced. the snowshoes reduce the force of the person on the snow. the large area of the snowshoe concentrates the force of the person to a point smaller than the foot. snowshoes push less dense snow out of the way so the person stands on more solid ice below
Find the work done in pumping gasoline that weighs 42 pounds per cubic foot. A cylindrical gasoline tank 3 feet in diameter and 8 feet long is carried on the back of a truck and is used to fuel tractors. The axis of the tank is horizontal. The opening on the tractor tank is 5 feet above the top of the tank in the truck. Find the work done (in ft-lb) in pumping the entire contents of the fuel tank into the tractor. (Round your answer to the nearest integer.) X ft-lb
Block 1 (19 kg) is setting on the floor of an elevator. A rope pulls vertically up on block 1 with a tension of 10 N.

A mechanic is supporting a car with a hydraulic lift. The smaller piston has radius of 3 inches and the larger piston has a radius of 11 inches. How many pounds of force must be applied to the smaller piston to support a car weighing 2500 pounds? The pistons are located at the same vertical distance from the ground. Neglect the weight of the pistons.
A passenger is standing on a scale in an elevator. The building has a height of 500 feet, the passenger has a mass of 80 kg, and the scale has a mass of 7 kg. The scale sits on the floor of the elevator. (It is an Otis elevator, so we will label it as "O" so as not to confuse its forces with those caused by the earth.) You may take g = 10 N/kg. For doing this problem it might be useful to start by drawing free-body diagrams for the passenger and the scale.Consider the vertical forces acting on the passenger and the scale WE→P: The force of the earth pulling down on the passenger (weight). WE→S: The force of the earth pulling down on the scale (weight). NP→S: The force of the passenger pushing down on the scale (normal). NS→P: The force of the scale pushing up on the passenger (normal). NO→S: The force of the elevator pushing up on the scale (normal). NO→P: The force of the elevator pushing up on the passenger (normal) a) While it is accelerating downward, which of the forces in your…
