Chapter 17.3, Problem 17.121P
The plank CDEhas a mass of 15 kg and rests on a small pivot at D. The 55-kg gymnast A is standing on the plank at C when the 70-kg gymnast B jumps from a height of 2.5 m and strikes the plank at E. Assuming perfectly plastic impact and that gymnast A is standing absolutely straight, determine the height to which gymnast A will rise.

A hammer head H having a weight of 0.26 lb is moving downwards at 40 ft/s when it strikes the head of a nail of negligible mass and drives it into a block of wood as shown.
Find the impulse on the nail if it is assumed that the grip at A is loose, the handle has a negligible mass, and the hammer stays in contact with the nail while it comes to rest.

Block A has a mass m and is attached to a cord that is wrapped around a uniform disk with a mass M. The block is released from rest and falls through a distance h before the cord becomes taut. Derive expressions for the velocity of the block and the angular velocity of the disk immediately after the impact. Assume that the impact is (a) perfectly plastic, (b) perfectly elastic.
The 40-kg gymnast drops from her maximum height of h = 0.5 m straight down to the bar as shown. Her hands hit the bar and clasp onto it, and her body remains straight in the position shown. Her center of mass is 0.75 meters away from her hands, and her mass moment of inertia about her center of mass 7.5 kg.m2. is Assuming that friction between the bar and her hands is negligible and that she remains in the same position throughout the swing, determine her angular velocity when she swings around to 0 = 135°.
