Would impulse be zero since the particles have no external forces acting during the moment of contact? Please solve the entire problem.
By using the yield line theory, determine the ultimate resisting moment per linear meter (m) for an isotropic reinforced concrete two-way simply supported triangle slab shown in figure under a uniform load (q). Solve by using equilibrium method m m
The tension in cable BA is 10 kN. The questions will lead you toward determining the moment of the force acting from B to A about the x-axis. Hints: Pay attention to the orientation of the XYZ coordinate axes. 1000 mm A (400, 300, 0) mm 600 mm x
