Illustrated here are a series of pulley systems. Imagine that you must lift a weight FW equal to 200 lb. with each of these systems. Assuming frictionless motion, calculate the amount of effort force E that would be needed to lift the weight using each system.

A system is being designed to lift objects with a cable. One end of the cable will be attached to the material while the other end will be permanently fixed to a drum (cylinder) so that as the drum is rotated the cable is wound around its outside surface. Two designs for a drum are being considered for use in the system. Design “A” calls for a solid aluminum pulley (paluminium = 2800 kg/m 3 ) while design “B” calls for a steel pulley (psteel = 8000 kg/m 3 ) that is hollow (it can be modeled as a 12 mm thick shell). Calculate the torque required to accelerate the pulley for Design B to reach 500 RPM in 4 seconds if the pulley is 500 mm wide. Assume constant
v B A 18 m/s The gauge pressure of water at A is 150.5 kPa. Water flows through the pipe at A with a velocity of 18 m/s, and out the pipe at B and C with the same velocity v. Neglect the weight of water within the pipe and the weight of the pipe. The pipe has a diameter of 50 mm at A, and at B and C the diameter is 35 mm. Pw = 1000 kg/m³. (Figure 1)
Given the figure shown below, what is the mass of block B on the smooth incline if the system is in static equilibrium? A rope runs from block B up around the frictionless pulley at A down to a 10 kg counterweight. A 1 m B- 1m 10 kg 45°
The block of weight W is pulled by the force P inclined at the angle to the horizontal. Find the smallest force P and the corresponding angle that would cause impending sliding of the block. The angle of static friction between the block and the ground is s.

III. Equilibrium of Non-Concurrent Force System 1. Weight lifter Hidilyn Diaz made a history becoming the first atlete from the Philippines to win gold at the Olympics. She competed in the women's 55 kg weightlifting competition during the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games at the Tokyo International Forum in Tokyo on July 26, 2021. She lifted a barbell with the total weight of 127 kg comprising of weight of plates: W1 = 50 kg, W2 = 6 kg; and standard weight of the olympic bar, W3 = 15 kg where it is located at the centroid of the bar. The standard length of women's olympic bar is 2.01 meters. As long as she is holding the barbell above her head, both bodies (weighlifter and barbell) are in static equilibrium. What are the forces, R1 and R2 exerted by her arms to keep her in static equilibrium? Assume the olympic bar is rigid. 2 O10 mm 1420mm 90mm To mm 320 mm 320 m 68 R2 65 R, W, Wi PHILIPPINES
