Three masses are attached to a 100-meter long beam as shown below. The mass of the bea, is 210 kilograms and the masses m1 and m3 are valued at 50 kilograms and 300 kilograms, respectively. Find the normal reaction force at the fulcrum that balances the system in SI units.
A three wheeled OTV has been designed such that the forces from the wheels and motors are uniform, hence the reaction forces at the point of contact with the upper surface can be modeled as a single vertical reaction support. The platform is a square with side length 200mm and has a thickness of 20mm. Plywood has a density of 0.3 g/cm^3. For the purposes of finding the platform weight, W, ignore any holes in the plywood for motor mounts. Due to a misscommunication in the team, the motor mounts M1, M2, and M3 were not attached symmetrically! The potential consequences of this are a difference in reaction forces at the platform to keep it balanced. This difference in reaction forces will result a different normal force at each wheel, and hence the potential for different traction forces, leading to an inability to drive the OTV straight.

A circular log floating in water is neutrally buoyant. Our ancestors found that by having half a log with semi-circular cross section and hollowing out the interior, it became stable so that they could use it to migrate across oceans. The reasons for it to become stable are: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) It lowers the centre of gravity G so that it is below the centre of buoyancy B. It lowers the centre of gravity G so that it is below the metacentre M. It increases the metacentric radius BM. It enables the shifting of the centre of buoyancy B laterally to produce a restoring moment when it is tilted. (A) (B) (C) (D) (i) and (ii) (ii) and (iii) (iii) and (iv) (iv) and (i)

A 61.0-kg survivor of a cruise line disaster rests atop a block of Styrofoam insulation, using it as a raft. The Styrofoam has dimensions 2.00 m ✕ 2.00 m ✕ 0.0870 m. The bottom 0.022 m of the raft is submerged. A. Write Newton's second law for the system in one dimension, using B for buoyancy, w for the weight of the survivor, and wr for the weight of the raft. (Set a = 0. Solve for Fy, the y-component of the net force. Let upward be the positive y-direction.) Fy = ( ) = 0 B. Calculate the numeric value for the buoyancy, B. (Seawater has density 1025 kg/m3. Enter the answer to at least the ones digit.) C. Using the value of B and the weight w of the survivor, calculate the weight wr of the Styrofoam. D. What is the density of the Styrofoam? E. What is the maximum buoyant force, corresponding to the raft being submerged up to its top surface? F. What total mass of survivors can the raft support?

Problem Description You are stuck in an elevator with a meter stick, a spring with a spring constant of 30 N/m, and an object with a mass of exactly 0.5 kg. When you suspend the object from the end of the spring, you find that the spring stretches by 18 cm. Determine everything you can about the motion of the elevator from this information. Instructions In a neat and organized fashion, write out a solution which includes the following: 1. A sketch of the physical situation with all given physical quantities clearly labeled. 2. Represent the forces exerted on the object using a force diagram and, after you have made your determinations about the motion of the elevator, construct possible motion diagrams representing the motion of the elevator (if you think there is only one possible motion draw that, if you think there are several possible motions draw motion diagrams for each of them). 3. Determine everything you can about the motion of the elevator. Use your force diagram and…
A professor's office door is 0.99 m wide, 2.2 m high, 4.2 cm thick; has a mass of 27 kg, and pivots on frictionless hinges. A "door closer" is attached to door and the top of the door frame. When the door is open and at rest, the door closer exerts a torque of 5.6 N*m. What is the moment of inertia of the door? If you let go of the open door, what is its angular acceleration immediately afterward?
