Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 47GP
An average family of four uses roughly 1200 L (about 300 gallons) of water per day (1 L = 1000 cm3). How much depth would a lake lose per year if it uniformly covered an area of 50 km2 and supplied a local town with a population of 40,000 people? Consider only population uses, and neglect evaporation and so on.

Cam mechanisms are used in many machines. For example, cams open and close the valves in your car engine to admit gasoline vapor to each cylinder and to allow the escape of exhaust.
The principle is illustrated in the figure below, showing a follower rod (also called a pushrod) of mass m resting on a wedge of mass M. The sliding wedge duplicates the function of a
rotating eccentric disk on a camshaft in your car. Assume that there is no friction between the wedge and the base, between the pushrod and the wedge, or between the rod and the guide
through which it slides. When the wedge is pushed to the left by the force F, the rod moves upward and does something such as opening a valve. By varying the shape of the wedge, the
motion of the follower rod could be made quite complex, but assume that the wedge makes a constant angle of 0 = 15.0°. Suppose you want the wedge and the rod to start from rest and
move with constant acceleration, with the rod moving upward 1.00 mm in 8.00 ms. Take m…
