The physics associated with statics has considerable applications in engineering. As a mechanical engineer working for a tow-truck manufacturer, you have been asked to evaluate the purchase of a new line of towing cable. The supplier claims that, although its cables are not as strong as its competitors (maximum tension capability of 9110 lb), the cost savings make it a good investment. A schematic of the towing configuration is shown. The car weighs 6479 lb, which is as large as the company expects their tow trucks to service. The overall length L of the car is 10.1 ft, and the distance d between the midpoints of the front and back tires is 9.09 ft. The bottom of the car's frame is a height hf = 0.370 above the ground, and the car's center of mass is a height hCM = 1.50 above the bottom of the car's frame. The angle ϕ between the midpoint of the tires and the tow cable is 50.0∘. Assume the CM of the car is positioned exactly halfway across its length, the geometry of the wheels and front/rear of the car is symmetrical, and that the coefficient of friction between the road and tires is sufficient to maintain no acceleration in the system. Calculate the tension T in the cable just as the front of the car begins to lift off the ground. Assume that the front end rises at a constant velocity. T = lb Based on your results, what would you advise your company? The cable they are offering is more than adequate. The cost savings make this a worthwhile investment. The cable they are offering is too weak to use. I would decline the purchase.

A mass m = 1.05 kg slides without friction from rest on a surface making a quarter circle with radius R = 1.55 m as shown in Figure 1. Then it lands on the top surface of a cart with mass M = 11.3 kg, that slides without friction on a horizontal surface. (In practise this cart could be a slider on an air track). Between the top of the cart and the mass m, the coefficient of static friction is μs = 1.07 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.959. The mass m slides a distance along the top of the cart but does not fall off. Figure 1: Diagrammatic representation of a block of mass m at the top of a quarter-circle surface of radius R that slopes down and to the right with decreasing absolute gradient towards a cart of mass M. The cart itself is resting on a horizontal surface. Part 1) What is the speed of the mass m immediately before it lands on the cart, M? v = ms−1 Part 2) What is the speed of the cart, M, when there is no longer any relative movement between m and M? V = m/s Part 3) How much mechanical energy is lost during the collision? (while m comes to rest relative to M). ΔE = −J Enter a positive number in the box if the final mechanical energy is less than the initial mechanical energy.
