Mr. Muscedere pushes a box, that has a mass of 2.5kg, against a spring N/m) that is attached to a wall so that it compresses 14cm and is at rest. The surface the spring is attached to is on a level 0.55m above the ground (refer to diagram). Once the block leaves the block, it encounters friction on the surface. The length of the surface is 1.5m and has a coefficient of friction of 0.11. Once is leaves the frictional surface, the box then travels DOWN a frictionless ramp onto a level surface on the ground. How fast is the block going when it gets to the level surface?

There is a box with height 1.2 m, width 0.8 m and mass 50 kg. It contains a very expensive equipment, which cannot be tilted while moving. There is a rope connected to the top-right corner of the box that you can pull with. The static friction coefficient between the floor and the box is 0.4. Assuming the rope angle θ is 30 degrees and m/s2. a) Is it possible to move the box using the rope without tilting the box? (need to show details) b) What is the minimum force required to move the box on the floor?
Q3: A car with mass of 800 Kg moves around a 700 m-radius curve at a constant speed of 60 Km/h. If the road is not banked, what frictional force must the road exert on the tires so that they will keep the car along the curve?
Your engineering firm is asked to specify the maximum load for theelevators in a new building. Each elevator has a mass 490 kg when empty and maximumacceleration 2.24 m/s2. The elevator cables can withstand a maximum tension of 19.5 kN beforebreaking. For safety, you need to ensure that the tension never exceeds two-thirds of that value.What is the maximum load that the elevator can safely carry? How many70-kg people is that?Briefly but clearly explain the reasoning for your choice of the sign of the acceleration.
Q3: The cylinder shown in Fig. (2), Ayinder=7.012cm, has two pistons mounted, the upper one, mp1 =100kg, initially resting on the stops. The lower piston (m2 =0kg) has 2kg water below it, with a spring (linear) in vacuum connecting the two pistons. The spring force is zero when the lower piston stands at the bottom, and when the lower piston hits the stops the volume is 0.3m. The water, initially at 50kPa, V =0.00206m', is then heated to saturated vapor. Determine: (1) the initial temperature (2) the pressure that will lift the upper piston (3) The condition of steam when the lower piston hits the stops (4) the work done by the water (at saturated vapor state).
