3. To help workers in your project site move dozens of equipment weighing 60 kgs to a height of 2.2m, you decided to apply the concept of simple machine. You want an inclined plane to be built. Given the angle between the incline and the ground, what would be the most efficient incline to be built to raise the equipments? Why? Here are the angles you can choose from for your incline: a. 15°; b. 30°; c. 60°

A train, traveling at 66 mi/h, rounds a horizontal curve of 390 ft radius. A passengerstanding in the lounge notes that she mustlean inward to keep from falling. Let an angle leaning inward be positive and outward benegative.At what angle from vertical must she lean?Since the radius of the curve is much greaterthan the height of the passenger, neglecttorques. 1 mile = 5,280 ft.Answer in units of ◦.
Suppose you use an ideal pulley of the type shown in Figure 5.18(c) to support a car engine of mass 125 kg. (a) What would the tension in the rope be? Answer in N(b) What force must the ceiling supply, assuming you pull straight up on the rope? The pulley system's mass is 6.00 kg.Answer in N (upward)
4. For a ladder to be stable, the angle that it makes with the groundshould be no more than 78 and no less than 73 .a) If the base of a ladder that is 8.0 m long is placed 1.5 m froma wall, will the ladder be stable? Explain.b) What are the minimum and maximum safe distances fromthe base of the ladder to the wall?
a 15kg child is sitting on a playground teeter-totter, 1.5 m from the pivot. what is the minimim distance, on the orher side of the pivot, such that a 220N force will make the child lift off the ground?
For serious fractures of the leg, the leg may need to have a stretching force applied to it to keep contracting leg muscles from forcing the broken bones together too hard. This is often done using traction, an arrangement of a rope, a weight, and pulleys as shown. The rope must make the same angle u on both sides of the pulley so that the net force of the rope on the pulley is horizontally to the right, but θ can be adjusted to control the amount of traction. The doctor has specified 50 N of traction for this patient, with a 4.2 kg hanging mass. What is the proper angle θ?
Suppose you use an ideal pulley of the type shown in Figure 5.18(a) to support a car engine of mass 105 kg. (a) What would the tension in the rope be?Answer in N(b) What force must the ceiling supply, assuming you pull straight down on the rope? Neglect the pulley system's mass.Answer in N (upward)

How much gravitational potential energy (relative to the ground on which it is built) is stored in an Egyptian pyramid, given its mass is about 9 ✕ 109 kg and its center of mass is 43.0 m above the surrounding ground? J
Suppose you use an ideal pulley of the type shown in Figure 5.18(b) and find it necessary to exert a force of 300 N to support a load. (a) What is the load's mass? Answer in kg(b) What force is exerted on the ceiling? Neglect the pulley system's mass. Answer in N (upward)
A trampoline with a 10-foot diameter circular mat has 50 springs equally spaced around itscircumference. If a 110 lb. girl produces a downward force of 250 lbs at the bottom of her jump(when the springs are stretched the most) causing the springs to angle down at 5°, then whatis the average force in each spring? Assume that she lands in the center of the mat and that50 separate but equal forces act to support the girl’s peak impact force.
When you lift an object by moving only your forearm, the main lifting muscle in your arm is the biceps. Suppose the mass of a forearm is 1.30 kg . If the biceps is connected to the forearm a distance dbiceps = 3.00 cm from the elbow, how much force Fbiceps must the biceps exert to hold a 750 g ball at the end of the forearm at distance dball = 35.0 cm from the elbow, with the forearm parallel to the floor? How much force Felbow must the elbow exert? What is the horizontal distance dforearm between the elbow and the point where the weight of the forearm acts?
