Sir Lost-a-Lot dons his armor and sets out from the castle on his trusty steed (see figure below). Usually, the drawbridge is lowed to a horizontal position so that the end ofthe bridge rests on the stone ledge. Unfortunately Lost-a-Lot's squire didn't lower the drawbridge far enough and stopped it at 0 = 20.0° above the horizontal. The knight andhis horse stop when their combined center of mass is d = 1.00 m from the end of the bridge. The uniform bridge is = 6.00 m long and has a mass of 2 300 kg. The liftcable is attached to the bridge 5.00 m from the hinge at the castle end and to a point on the castle wall h = 12.0 m above the bridge. Lost-a-Lot's mass combined with hisarmor and steed is 1 200 kg.(a) Determine the tension in the cable.49472X23800TI MAI ATLA JAHOTA QË K

A 6-g bullet is shot into a 2.1-kg block of wood, where it becomes embedded. The block is initially at rest and the bullet has an initial velocity of 400 m/s. The block then travels 1.2 m horizontally. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface?
Two sprinters leave the starting gate at the same time at the beginning of a straight track. The masses of the two sprinters are 58.5 kg and 66.5 kg. A few seconds later, the first sprinter is ahead of the second by a distance 5.1 m. How far ahead of the second sprinter is the center of mass of these two sprinters, in meters? If the speeds of the sprinters are 4.9 m/s and 2.2 m/s, respectively, how fast, in meters per second, is the center of mass moving? What is the momentum of the center of mass, in kilogram meters per second? How is the momentum of the center of mass related to the total momentum of the sprinters?
The drawing shows a human figure approximately in a sitting position. For the purposes of this problem, there are three parts to the figure, and the center of mass of each one is shown in the drawing. These parts are: (1) the torso, neck, and head (total mass = 42.0 kg) with a center of mass located on the y axis at a point 0.355 m above the origin, (2) the upper legs (mass = 19.5 kg) with a center of mass located on the x axis at a point 0.178 m to the right of the origin, and (3) the lower legs and feet (total mass = 10.5 kg) with a center of mass located 0.487 to the right of and 0.206 m below the origin. Find the (a) x coordinate and (b) the y coordinate of the center of mass of the human figure. Note that the mass of the arms and hands (approximately 12% of the whole-body mass) has been ignored to simplify the drawing. (a) Number (b) Number Units Units
A tourist is driving across Canada. They are currently in the rolling planes of Saskatchewan. They reach the peak of a hill. At the peak, they are travelling at 50 [ km/h]. They continue down the hill to a trough. At the bottom of the trough, they are driving at 100 [km/h]. The magnitude of the acceleration of the vehicle's mass center is the same at the peak and the trough. The vehicles mass center is 0.6 [m] from the road. It takes 10 seconds to travel from point A to B. Determine: a) The radius of curvature, PB, of the section of the road with the trough. Use the problem diagram below. 0.6 m Vrough PR Radius of Curvature at B V peak 40 m Radius of curvature at A

7.56 A 1500-kg rocket is Figure P7.56 to be launched with an initial upward speed of 50.0 m/s. In order to assist its engines, the engineers will start it from rest on a ramp that rises 53° above the horizon- tal (Fig. P7.56). At the bot- tom, the ramp turns upward and launches the rocket ver- tically. The engines provide a constant forward thrust of 2000 N, and friction with the ramp surface is a constant 500 N. How far from the base of the ramp should the rocket start, as measured along the surface of the ramp? Rocket starts here. 53% Rocket is launched upward.
