EM 306 - Hour Examination 2
Version C
There are four problems. Each problem is worth 25 points. Lf you draw correct. neat,
and appropriate fiee body diagrams, identify all unlcnowns necessary to solve the
problem, write a set of o equations in n unknowns that, when solved, will give correct
values for all requested unkoowns, and CLEARLY identify the n equations and the n
&owns, you can earn 24 of tbe 25 points for that problem. Work careMly and slowly,
Apply t h e basic principles.
