A heavy load of lumber badly hurt a lift truck operator while she attempted to dislodge an obstruction from the underside of a pallet. An investigation determined that the operator apparently climbed between the mast and underside of the pallet to remove an obstruction (there were no witnesses to the incident). Either she slipped, or the load shifted, catching her under the pallet that was stacked with lumber. The operator had been doing the job for 15 years, with over 10 years behind the wheel of a forklift. Her training was current and she had an excellent safety record. The employer, a kitchen cabinet manufacturer, had never experienced a serious accident such as this in 40 years of business. Write at least three suggested preventive measures to avoid the recurrence of said case accident.

One of your employees is complaining of knee pain on the R. While assessing his workstation, you noted that from a sitting position (starting position: 90 deg flexion), the employee needs to exert a lot of effort to extend his right knee to 45 deg from the starting point. The length of the limb (from the tibial tuberosity to the heel area) is measured to be 38 cm. What now is the linear distance traveled by the limb from the initial position to 45 degrees of knee extension?
An amusement park is designing a new ride. The ride is to have a motorized horizontal launch section that is 5m long. For safety the ride cars will be limited to ⅓g worth of acceleration and will have a typical loaded mass of 400kg. What is the maximum launch velocity of this situation, and what engine power rating is necessary to achieve this velocity?
01: A 105cm Rod is suspended on a wall with a 5N force pulling upwards, 110 degrees away from the horizontal axis and 5cm from a 50kgm hanging object. Find the location of the C.G. away from the wall. Neglect the Mass of the rod and consider it a rigid body. Assume SSLC. 02: Considering a CCW movement is Positive, what is the total value of the Negative Moments at the point with the 50kgm object? Please answer in four decimal places, in Nm. 03: What is the value of C.G. away from the wall? (in meters, two decimal places)
A 11120 N car is designed with a 310 cm wheelbase. The center of gravity is located 60 cm above the pavement and 105 cm behind the front axle. If the coefficient of road adhesion is 0.6, what is the maximum tractive effort that can be developed if the car is (a) front-wheel drive and (b) rear-wheel drive? (c) how far back from the front axle would the center of gravity have to be to ensure that the maximum tractive effort developed for front- and rear-wheel drive options is equal?
A block is being pushed on a flat surface of magnitude 45N. The force of friction on the brick is 13 N. that mass of the block is 11kg. A draw a free body diagram B what is the net force acting on the block C what is the acceleration of the block?
A motor driven conveyor was found to have a maximum weight capacity of 2,200 lbs per minute in transporting rocks and raising them 15 ft vertically. One day, Julie was being sued by the company because the CCTV camera shows that the coveyor transported 135,000 lbs of rock for 30 minutes during her shift. The motor was tested and was seen to be functional before Julie's shift. Prove mathematically that Julie is not innocent.
A manual chain hoist is a machine used to lift a 125 kg crate. A force of 200 N is applied to the effort chain through a distance of 3m, and the crate is lifted a distance of 0.4m. What is the Mechanical Advantage provided by the chain hoist?

A submarine is 285 m horizontally from the shore of a freshwater lake and 111 m beneath the surface of the water. A laser beam is sent from the submarine so that the beam strikes the surface of the water 201 m from the shore. A building stands on the shore, and the laser beam hits a target at the top of the building. The goal is to find the height of the target above sea level. Find the angle of incidence of the beam striking the water-air interface.
Zorch, an archenemy of Superman, decides to slow Earth’s rotation to once per 29 h by exerting a force parallel to the equator, opposing the rotation. Superman is not immediately concerned, because he knows Zorch can only exert a force of 4.15 × 107 N. For the purposes calculations in this problem you should treat the Earth as a sphere of uniform density even though it isn't. a. How long, in seconds, must Zorch push with this force to accomplish his goal? (This period gives Superman time to devote to other villains.)
