The 64.4-lb crate slides down the curved path in the vertical plane. if the crate has a velocity of 3 ft/sec down the incline at a and a velocity of 25 ft/sec at b, compute the work uf. done on the crate by friction during the motion from a to b.

Aprojectile is launched horizontally 10m above the ground and with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. a) sketch the trajectory using an appropriate coordination system. b) how long for the projectile to reach the ground. c) how far did projectile travel horizontally before striking the ground. d) determine the projectilex & y position at t-1.3s e) determine the magnitude and direction of projectile velocity at t= 1.3s f) determine the magnitude and direction of projectile acceleration at t-1.3s

Ateam of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. in addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. with what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density p 3.84 x108 g/m3 and volume v 2.17 x 1012 m3 recall that the universal gravitational constant is g 6.67 x 10-11 n m2/kg2

Total solidification times of three casting geometries are to be compared: a sphere, a cylinder, in which the length-to-diameter ration - 1.0, and a cube. volume = 1000 cm^3 for all three shhapes, and the same casting alloy is used. a) determine the solidification times of each geometry b) based on the results of part (a), which geometric element would make the best riser? c) if the mold constant = 3.5 min/cm^2 in chvorinov's rule, compute the total solidification time for each casting.
