- A particle P has a mass of 2 kg and a velocity (i-2j+2k) ms-1. Determine the angular momentum of P about a point O, given that the displacement vectors of P and O, from a given point, are (3i+5j-6k) m and (i+7j-9k) m, respectively.arrow_forwardThe water sprinkler, positioned at the base of the hill, releases a stream of water with a velocity of 25 ft/s at 50 degrees with respect tothe horizontal. Determine the point B(x,y) where the water strikes the ground on the hill. Assume that the hill is defined by the equation y = 0.09x^2 feet and neglect the size of sprinkler.arrow_forwardUsing polar coordinates, determine the reaction force of the ground to the skier at point B if skier passes through point A with 17 m/s speed. Radius of the circular path is 6 m.arrow_forward
- The 12-Mg truck drives onto the 366-Mg barge from the dock at 27 km/h and brakes to stop on the deck. The barge is free to move in the water, which offers negligible resistance to motion at low speeds. Calculate the speed of the barge after the truck has come to rest on it.arrow_forwardA railroad car having a mass of 15000 kg is coasting at 1.5 m/s on a horizontal track. At the same time another car having a mass of 12000 kg is coasting at 0.75 m/s in the opposite direction. If the cars meet and couple together, determine the speed of both cars just after the coupling.arrow_forwardA 3 kg slider is released from rest at point A and slides with negligible friction' in a vertical plane along the circular rod. The attached spring has a stiffness of 350 N/m and has an unstretched length of 0.75 m. a) Which of the following gives the gravitational potential energy if the slider passes position B. b) Which of the following gives the elastic potential energy if the slider passes position B. c) Which of the following gives the velocity of slider as it passes position Barrow_forward
- A projectile is fired with a speed of 1,000 ft/s at a height of 500 ft. Determine theelevation angle so that the maximum height is 2,500ft.arrow_forwardA railroad car having a mass of 15 Mg is coasting at 1.5 m/s on a horizontal track. At the same time another car having a mass of 12 Mg is coasting at 0.75 m/s in the opposite direction. If the cars meet and couple together,determine the speed of both cars just after the coupling. Find the difference between the total kinetic energy before and after coupling has occurred, and explain qualitatively what happened to this energy.arrow_forwardIt takes 33 s for the 48-Mg tugboat to increase its speed uniformly to 25 km/h, starting from rest. The propeller provides the propulsion force F which gives the tugboat forward motion, whereas the barge moves freely. The barge has a mass of 80 Mg.arrow_forward

Determine the point B(x,y) where the water strikes the ground on the hill. Assume that the hill is defined by the equation y = 0.09x^2feet and neglect the size of sprinkler.arrow_forwardThe 2 kg BC ring can only move left and right on the frictionless rigid arm. Ring BC is connected to springs with spring constants k = 300 N / m and k ′ = 200 N / m at points AB and CD. The unstretched length of both springs is 600 mm. Since it is known that the springs are not tensioned and starts from rest, find the velocity of the ring BC at the moment when the external force F is applied 200 mm.arrow_forward
