the force. If this impulse acted at the centre of mass of a body of mass 500 kg and brought it to rest,
estimate the velocity of the body before it acted.

Answers
Answer for Question No.1
Solution The resultant force R = 200 i + 300 j - 150 k N. The moment of the given forces about the origin o
is given by
M= 1.2jx200i+ 1 kx300j + 1.5 ix (-150k) = -300 i + 225 j - 240 k Nm.
Let the wrench-be located at point P(o, y, z) located by the position vector yj + z k. The moment must be
Mi, i.e. normal to yz plane. Then,
(y j + z k) x (200 i + 300 j - 150 k) + Mi = -300 i + 225 j - 240 k.
whence,
300 z. + 150 y = M
200 z = 225
200 y = 240
y = 1.2 m, z = 1.125 m, M = 217.5 Nm
The desired wrench, therefore, consists of a force 200 i + 300 j - 150 k N and a moment 217.5 i Nm at the
point (0, 1.2, 1.125 m).
Answer for Question No. 2
Solution: The theorems of Pappus-Guldinus can be used to great advantage in this case. The centroid of the semicircle is 4R/3
above the diametrical axis. The area of semicircle is R2/2. According to the Pappus-Guldinus, the volume of the body of
revolution generated should be same as that which be obtained if the entire area R2/2 were concentrated at a radius 4R/3. Th
volume of the sphere is therefore,
2(4R/3) x (R2/2) = (4/3) R2
Answer for Question No. 3
Solution With the maximum initial velocity of 30 m/s, the horizontal range of 40 m requires that
302 x sin2
40 = ___________ ;sin2 = 0.435
9.81
whence
2 = 25.8° or 154.2°;  = 12.9° or 77.1°
The first piece that can hit the person has an angle of projection of 12.9° and initial velocity 30 m/s
takes time
t1 =(2 x 30 x sin 12.9)/9.81 = 1.36 sec
The last piece that can hit the person has an angle of projection of 77.1° and initial velocity 30 m/s which
takes time
t2=(2 x 30 x sin 77.1)/9.81 = 5.96 seconds.
How about the maximum time taken by a piece at less than 30 m/s? Well, then the higher value of 
would be less than 77.1° and hence t2 would be less.
The duration over which the person can be hit by a piece is a period of 4.6 seconds, beginning 1.36
seconds and ending 5.96 seconds after the bursting of the shell.

= 1000 i + 250 j - 24,000 k Ns
From the impulse-momentum principle,
I = m(V2 - V,)
1000 i + 250 j + 24, 000 k = 500(0 – V1)
whence V1, the velocity before the action of impulse should be
(-2 i - 0.5 j + 48 k) m/s
Answer for Question No. 5
Solution For the first case of suspension from the pivot O1
r = L/2
2
I = ML /l2 + M(L/2)2 = ML2/3
and  =2(ML2/3)/(MgL/2) = 2  2L/3g
.
For
=1s L=3g/82 =0. 373 m
For the second case of suspension from the pivot O2
r = L/4
I=ML2/12 +M(L/4)2 =7148 ML2
and
=2 (7/48ML2 )/(MgL/4) =27L/12g
For
=1s, L=12g/28 2=0.426m
An extension of this example leads us to an interesting question: What will  be if the rod is suspended at the cen
If the pivot is located at the centre of mass,
=2(I/mg x 0)
-->
.which shows that the periodic motion is not possible in this case; obviously because the restoring moment disap
body acts at the pivot itself.
Answer for Question No. 6
ANS. Let r be the radius of the drop. Self evaporation will take place when energy repleased due to
decrease in surface area is equal to latent heat of the mass evaparated. Let dr be the decrease in radius.
Volume of water evaporated = 4r2 dr.
Latent heat of water evaporated = 4r2dr rw L.
Decrease in surface area = 4r2 – 4 (r – dr) = 8rdr.
 Energy released = 8rdr T.
 8rdr T = 4r2 dr rw L.

Answer for Question No. 7
ANS.
Equation of S . H. M is  = asin (t + )
When the particle passes through mean position its velocity is maximum and it has only kinetic
energy .
Now Vmax = w. a
So its K. E = ½ m2 . a2 = 8  10-3
½  0.1  2  ( 0.1)2 = 8  10-3 or  =  4
So the equation of motion is  = 0.1 sin (  4t + /4) m .

Hence the motion is simple harmonic period = 2[Mec/mg(c–a)]1/2.
