A steel wire connects two trains at rest on the same track. The wire will snapif it is stretched by as much as 1 percent. The trains begin to accelerate in such away that their velocities, as measured in the ground frame, are always equal.Eventually, the wire snaps. Explain carefully why this happens. How fast are thetrains moving when the wire snaps?
Assuming that there are no heat effects and no frictional effects, find the kinetic energy and speed of a 3220-lb body after it falls 778 ft from rest. Start with the steady flow equation, deleting energy terms which are irrelevant.Answer: 224 fps
Bicycle wheels are manufactured having thin rims and tires of total mass D per unit length, and the spokes and axle may be ignored. Find the angular momentum of one bicycle wheel of radius r when the bicycle is traveling at velocity v, and hence comment upon whether you would prefer large wheels or small wheels to make a bicycle easiest to balance when riding it.
We investigated a jet landing on an aircraft carrier. In a later maneuver,the jet comes in for a landing on solid ground with a speed of 95 m/s, and itsacceleration can have a maximum magnitude of 6.37 m/s2 as it comes to rest.(a) From the instant the jet touches the runway, what is the minimum time intervalneeded before it can come to rest?(b) Can this jet land on a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 kmlong? Show your work using a calculation.

A jet of water whose diameter is 5cm strikes a fixed cup with a velocity of 9.45m/s and is deflected by 165 degree. The jet leaves with a velocity of 30m/s . if the cup offers a reactive force of 26.5N to the jet when the flow rate was 980 N/min. Determine the ratio of a) Actual to theoretical forces of the jet. b) Velocities at outlet and inlet. Assume any missing data.
When rowing downstream consider the following scenario. The current of the water is moving at 2 m/s in the direction you are rowing. The coefficient of drag between your boat and the water is 1.2, the area in contact with the water is 0.1 m2 and the density of the water is 1000 kg/m3. You are moving at a velocity of 4 m/s into a head wind of 4 m/s. Your coefficient of drag between you and the air is 1.4, the area in contact with the air is 0.4 m2 and the density of the air is 1.2 kg/m3. Your goal is to create a net force moving downstream that is equal to 100 N. How much force must you exert with the oar and in what direction to achieve this net force downstream?

Topic: Impulse and Momentum Sand drops at a rate of 2000 kg/min from the bottom of a hopper onto a belt conveyer moving horizontally at 250 m/min. Determine the force needed to drive the conveyer, neglecting friction.
Please answer this NEATLY, COMPLETELY, and CORRECTLY for an UPVOTE. The wooden block (mass m = 0.5358 kg) is released from rest at A by a compressed spring (compressed length 0.6 m, undeformed length 1 m, spring constant k = 150 N/m). The block is allowed to slide through the rough horizontal surface (A to B), then along the smooth circular ramp (B to C, central angle θ = 47.2°, until the block is released after point C. Calculate the speed of the block at points B and C. Also, what is the magnitude of the normal force exerted to the block just before the block leaves the ramp? Neglect the geometry of the block. NOTE: Use Work-Energy Method to solve for the speeds; use Force-Mass-Acceleration (FMA) Method to compute for the normal force.
