Maria’s father started a fire in the fireplace. he crumpled some paper, lit a match, and soon the logs in the fireplace were burning. in this case, the stored chemical energy in the logs was changed into
a) electrical energy.
b) mechanical motion.
c) heat and light energy.
d) electrical and heat energy.

The crank oa rotates in the vertical plane with a constant clockwise angular velocity ω0 of 5.6 rad/s. for the position where oa is horizontal, calculate the force under the light roller b of the 10.6-kg slender bar ab.

Askydiver weighing 140 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 19,000 ft and opens the parachute after 18 s of free fall. assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.55|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 14|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity v is measured in ft/s. assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. (a) find the speed of the skydiver when the parachute opens. (b) find the distance fallen before the parachute opens. (c) what is the limiting velocity vl after the parachute opens? (d) determine how long the sky diver is in the air after the parachute opens. (e) plot the graph of velocity versus time from the beginning of the fall until the skydiver reaches the ground.

The a992 steel rod bc has a diameter of 50 mm and is used as a strut to support the beam. determine the maximum intensity w of the uniform distributed load that can be applied to the beam without risk of causing the strut to buckle. take f. s. = 2 against bucklin
