The rigid bar is pinned at A and supported by two aluminum rods, each having a diameter of 1 in. a modulus of elasticity Eal = 10(103) ksi, and yield stress of (sY)al = 40 ksi. If the bar is initially vertical, determine the angle of tilt of the bar when the 20-kip load is applied.

The diagram shows four locations in the electric field of a positive point charge m. at which location is the electric potential the greatest.

Arailroad car collides with and sticks to an identical railroad car that is initially at rest. after the collision, the total kinetic energy of the two cars is a) the same as before. b) half as much as before. c) one third as much as before. d) one fourth as much as before. e) twice as much as before.

Consider a small frictionless puck perched at the top of a fixed sphere of radius r. if the puck is given a tiny nudge so that it begins to slide down, through what vertical height will it descend before it leaves the surface of the sphere? [hint: use conservation of energy to find the puck's speed as a func e conservation of energy to find the puck's speed as a function of its height at what value of this normal force does the puck leave the sphere? ] here on the puck.
