In a large printing operation, an employee using a clamp forklift truck that was transporting two waste- paper bales from the scrap paper area. One paper bale (~0.5 ton) was placed on top of another 1 ton bale; however, the top bale was not strapped to the bottom bale. As the forklift driver made a turn, he had to brake suddenly for a nearby pedestrian. The sudden stop and turn caused the top bale to fall off and strike the pedestrian. A review of the accident showed that the forklift operator was trained and certified, but the employee was in an area where pedestrians were prohibited according to plant safety rules. Write at least three suggested preventive measures to avoid the recurrence of said case accident.

Then the block is given an initial speed vo, and a constant force Fis also applied on it, and it slides down the smooth (friction-less) inclined surface. (Both the velocity and the force have directions along the inclined surface.) The block will eventually stop due to the spring force. (1) On paper, sketch the FBD for the block after the force is applied on it. In the answer area below, simply enter: "see notes." 0000 vo F 30°
A great pianist is getting ready for his concert and plan to move his exclusive grand piano to his concert venue. The 700 kg piano needs to be loaded onto a truck bed which is about 1.5 m high.1.Initially, the movers decide to use an adjustable ramp to move the piano. The ramp can only be adjusted up to 10 m long and the inclination angle must not exceed 20° to ensure a safe loading process. Determine the range of a suitable length and angle of the ramp. 2.On a second thought, the movers are considering whether it is easier to lift the piano straight up onto the truck bed or push it up along the rough the ramp. With the aid of an appropriate free body diagram, justify the most efficient option for the movers to load the piano to the truck bed with constant speed. State clearly all the assumptions made, and the principles used in the calculations to support your answers.
A projectile object reaches a height of 303 m, if it is fired straight up using a spring-loaded gun. Using the same gun, what is the maximum height (m) that can be reached by the projectile if it fired at an angle of 19 ° from the vertical?
The maximum friction force between a book and a desk is 12 N. If a horizontal force of 10 N is applied to the book, what is the friction force?
3. In a science fiction story about space exploration an expedition to Mars was described. The space ship landed in a rocky valley and the astronauts promptly prepared their vehicle for a trip on the planet's surface. This special vehicle was designed with big inflated tires. On the very first steep slope the vehicle tipped over. They did have small steel balls onboard to increase traction. They thought of suspending a bunch of them beneath the vehicle to lower its center of gravity, but that would decrease the clearance and cause the weights to strike rocks and the ground more often How could it be done?
02. Two-body systems (joined by a light inextensible string); both on a flat horizontal plane with and without friction. Two blocks weighing 4kg and 7kg are connected by a light inextensible string. A force of 25ON is applied on the 7kg block at an angle of 30° to the horizontal, as shown in the diagram below. The system moves to the east. Each block experiences a frictional force of 45 N. Find a) The acceleration of the system. b) The tension in the string. Fa= 250 N 30° 4 kg 7 kg
** Please label the question answers so I could understand it better! Thank you! Scenario: A chair with a mass of 20.0 kg is attached to one end of a frictionless pulley system via a strong massless rope. The other end of the rope is attached to a steel water tank sitting on a flat horizontal concrete surface (see the image to the right). The coefficient of static friction between steel and concrete is 0.45 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the surfaces is 0.30. The water tank, which is full of water, has sprung a leak. The combined mass of the water and the tank is 500 kg. This mass slowly decreases as the water leaks from the hole. You (i.e. your entire mass) are sitting at rest in the seat. You and the seat will remain at rest as long as the force of static friction is strong enough to hold you. Task: LET [DOWN] and [RIGHT] be positive. Using your knowledge of physics, determine the following: 1. As soon as the chair begins to move, static friction between the steel…
I have been working on a force plate analysis but I'm not sure which of Newton’s laws of motion is employed in a force plate analysis? I'm supposed to give the definition of the appliable law of motion in terms of how it is reflected in the GRFs (ground reaction forces). any idea?
What force should the woman in Figure 9.46 exert on the floor with each hand to do a push- up? Assume that she moves up at a constant speed. (b) The triceps muscle at the back of her upper arm has an effective lever arm of 1.75 cm, and she exerts force on the floor at a horizontal distance of 20.0 cm from the elbow joint. Calculate the magnitude of the force in each triceps muscle, and compare it to her weight. (c) How much work does she do if her center of mass rises 0.240 m? (d) What is her useful power output if she does 25 pushups in one minute? m = 50.0 kg CG 0.90 m 1.50 m reaction F,
It’s leg day at the gym and you’re working on knee extension exercises. Using the figure below and the Leipzig anthropometric tables in the textbook, calculate the quadriceps muscle force and the reaction force at the knee joint. Consider the added mass of the thigh and shank, but the ankle may be ignored. The person is 5’6” and weighs 165 lbs and is lifting 100 lbs on the knee extension machine. You may also assume that the person’s leg is not resting on the chair.
Clutch Mechanism 8. In the clutch mechanism shown, two flat circular disks of radius R are mounted so that they can be brought into contact causing a net frictional force. The contact pressure in general depends on the distance from the center and in one specific case may be modeled buy P(r) = Poe-kr, where k is a constant and r is the distance from the center of the discs. The integral cR F = 2m " P(r)rdr gives the total contact force between the discs. Cross-section a. In your own words explain where this formula comes from.
