Section-B

Marks : 5 Each

2.                  A rope is fastened at the points (0,0) and (9,0) carries a 200 N weight and an  unknown weight as shown in the fig.-1. The vertices of the rope polygon lie at the points (2,3) and (5,4). Determine the magnitudes of the forces in the three parts of the rope and the magnitude of the weight W.



 


3.                  A block weighing 800 N rests on an inclined plane  4 : 3 (4 horizontal to 3 vertical0. The coefficient of friction is 0.4. Determine the           value of the force appied parallel to the plane to cause motion to impend:

 

(a)     (a)    up the plane

(b)     (b)   down the plane

3.                  Determine the coordinates of the area shown shaded in fig.-2.

 

 


 


 

5.             A stone is thrown horizontally with a velocity    2gh    from the top of a tower of   height h. Find, where and with what velocity will it strike the level ground through the foot of the tower.

6.             A cylinder oscillates about a fixed axis with a frequency of 10 cycles per minute. If the motion is harmonic with an amplitude of 0.10 rad, find the maximum acceleration in rad/s2.

Section-C

Marks : 10 Each

7.        7.           A particle moves in a straight line. Its movement is represented by the equation:                             S=12t+2t2-t3 where, S is in metres and t, in seconds.

Determine:

(a) displacement, velocity and acceleration 2 seconds after start;

(b) displacement and acceleration when velocity is zero, and

(c ) displacement and velocity when acceleration is zero.

8.             A pile hammer weighing 8 kn falls freely from a height of 2.0 m on a pile weighing 4 kN. For each blow, the pile is driven by 100 mm. Determine :

(a)     (a)    resistance of the ground

(b)     (b)   loss of Kinetic  Energy during the impact, and

(c)     (c)    time during which the pile is in motion for each blow.

  1. Draw free body diagram for the arrangement og two 1.0 kN , 300 mm radius cylinderical rollers, shown in Fig.-3. Also determine the magnitudes of all the forces. Assume all surfaces are frictionless.
