- 1. A team was sent to the scene to complete the data collection needed for you to determine the coefficient of friction. To do this, the data collector drags a 13.265kg tire across the pavement. The force meter shows a force of 100N is needed to drag the tire at constant velocity. We also know that the coefficient of friction for the truck's tires is only 70% of the value for the car's tires.

A completely automated Tesla travels up a 3% incline at 30 mph on a road that has good, wet pavement. The car has a wheelbase of 120 inches and a center of gravity that is 55 inches behind the front axle and at a height of 20 inches. The braking efficiency is 88%. It notices a pothole 35 ft ahead of the car and comes to a complete stop. a) Calculate the percentages of braking force that should be allocated to the front and rear brakes to ensure that maximum braking forces are developed. b) Will the car hit the pothole if it has (i) no antilock brakes and (ii) antilock brakes (braking efficiency 100%)? Assume theoretical stopping distance and neglect aerodynamic resistance.
A differential equation encountered in the vibration of beams is d4ydx4=2D where x = distance measured along the beam; [x]=[L] y = displacement of the beam; [y]=[L] = circular frequency of vibration; []=[T1] = mass of the beam per unit length; []=[ML1] D = bending rigidity of beam; [D]=[FL2] Show that the equation is dimensionally homogeneous. Note that [F]=[MLT2] see Eq. (1.21:).

3. For this series of 5 questions, a block is released from the position shown with a certain initial velocity. It then slides down the smooth (friction-less) path for which the function is given in the image. You will be asked to solve for different things.
