- Concrete column
The concrete column of the highway bridge has the shape of a block with dimensions of 1m x 0.8m x 25m. It should be lifted by crane to a height of 20m. What is the power of his engine if the lifting takes 2 minutes?
- Constant Angular Acceleration
The particle began to move from rest along a circle with a constant angular acceleration. After five cycles (n = 5), its angular velocity reached the value ω = 12 rad/s. Calculate the magnitude of the angular acceleration ε of this motion and the time int
- Against each other
From two points A, B distant 23 km at the same time started two cars against each other at speeds 41 km/h and 65 km/h. How long does cars meet and what distance passes each of them?
- Average speed 4
Starting at home Tony traveled uphill to the store for 45 minutes at 8 miles per hour. he then traveled back home on the same path at a speed of 24 miles per hour. what is his average speed for the entire trip?
- Same force
The trunk of 5m length and 95 kilograms has a center of gravity 2m from the thicker end. The tribe is carried by two men, one at the thicker end. At what distance does the trunk carry a man from the other end to make the same force on it?
- Two forces
Two forces with magnitudes of 25 and 30 pounds act on an object at 10° and 100° angles. Find the direction and magnitude of the resultant force. Round to two decimal places in all intermediate steps and your final answer.
- Brass tube
The outer perimeter of brass tube (ρ = 8.5 g/cm3) is 38 cm. Its mass is 5 kg, length 54 cm. What is the pipe wall thickness?
- Car crash
On the road, with a maximum permitted speed of 60 km/h, there was a car crash. From the length of the vehicle's braking distance, which was 40 m, the police investigated whether the driver did not exceed that speed. What is the conclusion of the police, a
- Sphere floating
Will float a hollow iron ball with an outer diameter d1 = 20cm and an inside diameter d2 = 19cm in the water? The iron density is 7.8 g/cm 3. (Instructions: Calculate the average sphere density and compare with the density of the water. )
- Tourists
From the cottage started first group of tourists at 10:00 AM at speed 4 km/h. The second started after them 47 minutes later at speed 6 km/h. How long and how many kilometers from the cottage will catch the first group?
- Two runners
Two runners ran simultaneously towards each other from locations distant 34.6 km. The average speed of the first runner was 1/5 higher than the average speed of the second runner. How long should each ran a 34.6 km, if you know that they meet after 67 min
- Tower model
Tower height is 300 meters, weight 8000 tons. How high is the model of the tower weight 1 kg? (State the result in the centimeters). The model is made from exactly the same material as the original no numbers need to be rounded. The result is a three-digi
- Water current
John swims upstream. After a while, he passes the bottle, from that moment he floats for 20 minutes in the same direction. He then turns around and swims back, and from the first meeting with the bottle, he sails 2 kilometers before he reaches the bottle.
- The bridge
A vehicle weighing 5,800 kg passes 41 km/h on an arched bridge with a radius of curvature of 62 m. What force is pushing the car onto the bridge as it passes through the center? What is the maximum speed it can cross over the center of the bridge so that
- Imagine
Imagine that a unit of air at a temperature of 25°C rises up a mountain range that is 3,000 meters high on the windward side and which descends to 1,200 meters on the leeward side, assuming that the air will remain dry what will its temperature when it cr
- Paratrooper
After the parachute is opened, the paratrooper drops to the ground at a constant speed of 2 m/s, with the sidewinding at a steady speed of 1.5 m/s. Find: a) the magnitude of its resulting velocity with respect to the ground, b) the distance of his land fr
