The first man who studied and partially understood the kinematics of a particle falling in the earth's gravitational field was Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519). He constructed an apparatus consisting of two vertical boards, hinged together on one side and covered with blotting paper on the inside faces. A leaking water tap lets drops fall down between the boards at presumably equal intervals of time. When a string is suddenly pulled, the boards are clapped together and the positions of the drops on the blotters can be inspected. Suppose that the vertical boards are 3 feet long and the leaking faucet is at such height and the rate of dropping is so regulated that when a drop is just coming out of the faucet, the next or second drop is just at the top of the boards and the sixth drop is at the bottom of the boards, while drops 3, 4 and 5 are between the boards. Calculate the number of drops leaving the faucet per second.

During a bicep curl on a bicep curl machine, I'm curling a weight stack of 100 pounds (single arm...I'm jacked like that). At this very moment, the weight stack has a moment arm of 0.12m, my elbow has an angle of 63deg, my muscle force vector has an angle of 23deg, and it attaches 3cm below my elbow joint on my radius. How much force must my bicep create right at this moment to hold the weight stack in place?

Let's say that the semiempirical binding energy formula is Eb= aA-bA^2/3 - s(N-Z)^2/A -dZ^2/A^1/3 where a,b,s,d are constants. Imagine that you are in a different universe where there are 3 types of nucleons with spin equal to 1/2 and electric charges equal to +1, -1 and 0. Mass similar to that of a proton. Forces are similar to those of our universe. i) How do equations change for A and Z as a function of N+, N-, No and what is the semiempirical equation for the binding energy as a function of A, Z, and No? ii) At what Z and No do we have the maximum and minimum binding energy for every A? iii) When do we have stable nuclei under beta (β) decay? If "alpha particle" in this situation has N+ = N- = No = 2, what does apply for alpha (α) decay? iv) What does apply for nuclear fission and finally, how would life be in this situation?

A 100 grams non-uniform meter stick is found to balance on a knife edge at the 60-cm mark. Where is the position of the 60 grams mass need to hang to balance the meter stick at 50-cm marker? In the above problem, if you were given another 20-gram mass, (a) where do you hang it on left side, (b) where do you hang it on right side to keep the meterstick balance. If you can't, then justify your answer.

4. A skydiver is falling at terminal velocity toward earth moving at 80m/s. The weight of the skydiver is 800N. What rate of heat generation is created in the air behind them (Joules per second)? If they continue at constant speed, how far vertically would they need to fall to loose gravitational energy equal to one gallon of gasoline? (Energy in one gallon of gas is 150MJ).
The topic is all about Force Systems (Coplanar-Concurrent). Please see the attached picture below: Thank you.
In a nutshell, a smaller rock is propelled into the air as a huge counterweight in the back falls down, effectively converting gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy for the rock and the weight. But, since the rock is smaller.. it is propelled at a much faster velocity! Let's say we wanted to hurl a 50 kg boulder at a castle wall 100 meters away. Our wooden structure for the trebuchet is 10 meters tall, so that is the maximum distance the counterweight can fall. Assuming the launch angle is a perfect 45 degrees, and the boulder is released from ground level, derive the needed mass of the counterweight that will give the boulder enough kinetic energy to reach the base of the castle walls. You may assume no energy is "lost" due to friction, and ALL the counterweight's gravitational potential energy is converted into the boulder's kinetic enerqy. (HINT: You will need to employ 2D kinematics to find the needed final velocity, then use that final velocity in an energy equation…
