Chapter 14.1, Problem 14.9P
A 20-kg base satellite deploys three sub-satellites, each of which has its own thrust capabilities, to perform research on tether propulsion. The masses of sub-satellites A, B, and C are 4 kg, 6 kg, and 8 kg, respectively, and their velocities expressed in m/s are given by vA = 4i − 2j + 2k, vB = i + 4j, vC = 2i + 2j + 4k. At the instant shown, what is the angular momentum HO of the system about the base satellite?

area is used to pull a trailor with a gross mass of
800 kg at 50 km/h in top gear on level road. If the
jeep is capable of developing 40 kW of power for
propulsion, find whether it is adequate for the
job. The transmission efficiency may be taken as
92%. Also, find the pull on the coupling at this
speed.

A block with a mass of 1kg is initially at rest while held in contact with a compressed spring. The spring has a stiffness constant of 1000 N/m and is initially compressed by a length of 0.3 meters.

There are no frictional losses while the mass is in contact with the spring, and there are no losses due to air resistance. Only losses are due to the interaction with the table during the 1-meter slide. The surface of the table is 2 meters above the floor.
