TASK 1 QUESTIONS
2) A flatcar of mass mo starts moving to the right due to a constant horizontal force F (Fig.
1.46). Sand spills on the flatcar from a stationary hopper. The velocity of loading is constant
and equal to u kg/s. Find the time dependence of the velocity and the acceleration of the
flatcar in the process of loading. The friction is negligible
3) A uniform solid cylinder of radius R = 15 cm rolls over a horizontal plane passing into an
inclined plane forming an angle alpha = 30° with the horizontal (Fig. 1.67). Find the
maximum value of velocity vo, which still permits the cylinder to roll onto the inclined plane
section without a jump. The sliding is assumed to be absent.
4) A horizontal plane supports a stationary vertical cylinder of radius R and a disc A attached
to the cylinder by a horizontal thread AB of length lo ( Fig 1.32 top view ). An initial velocity
vo is imparted to the disc as shown in the figure. How long will it move along the plane until
it strikes against the cylinder? The friction is assumed to be absent.
5) A conducting rod AB of mass m slides without friction over two long conducting rails
separated by a distance l (Fig. 3.88).At the left end the rails are interconnected by a
resistance R. The system is located in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the
plane of the loop. At the moment t = 0 the rod AB starts moving to the right with an
initial velocity vo. Neglecting the resistances of the rails and the rod AB, as well as the
self-inductance, find:
(a) the distance covered by the rod until it comes to a standstill;
(b) the amount of heat generated in the resistance R during this process.
6) A body of mass m is thrown straight up with velocity vo. Find the velocity with which the
body comes down if the air drag equals kv^2? where k is a constant and v is the velocity of
the body.
7) Findthe minimum attainable pressure of ideal gas in the process T = To + 𝛂V2, where To
and 𝛂 are positive constants, and V is the volume of one mole of gas. Draw the approximate p
vs V plot of this process
8) Find the M.l of the given section, about the horizontal axis through centre of gravity of the
section.
9) The smallest division on the main scale of a Vernier calipers is 0.1 cm. Ten divisions of the
Vernier scale correspond to nine divisions of the main scale. The figure below on the left
shows the reading of this calipers with no gap between its two jaws. The figure on the right
shows the reading with a solid sphere held between the jaws. The correct diameter of the
sphere is
10) A conducting current-carrying plane is placed in an external uniform magnetic field. As a
result, the magnetic induction becomes to B1 on one side of the plane and to B2, on the
other. Find the magnetic force acting per unit area of the plane in the cases illustrated in fig
3.72. Determine the direction of the current in the plane in each case
11) A container has a base of 50 cm x 5 cm and height 50 cm, as shown in the figure. It has
two parallel electrically conducting walls each of area 50 cm x 50 cm. The remaining walls of
the container are thin and non-conducting. The container is being filled with a liquid of
dielectric constant 3 at a uniform rate of 250 cm3. What is the value of the capacitance of the
container after 10 seconds?
[Given: Permittivity of free space €o = 9 × 10^-12 The effects of the non conducting walls on
the capacitance are negligible]
12) Continuous beam built-up at A and is carried over roller at B and C as shown in fig. It
carries U.D.L of 30 KN/m over AB and point load of 240 kN over BC, 4m from the support
B which sinks 30mm. Values of E and I are 200 kN/mm2 and 2x 109 mm4 respectively and
uniform throughout. Calculate support moments and draw B.M and S.F diagram.
13) Explain CAN (Controller Area Network), including its uses and how the CAN frame
works. Why is it message-oriented? Briefly explain the concept of CAN arbitration and how
arbitration determines which device transmits on the CAN bus.
14) How do the bumps and dips of our planet - mountains, valleys, deserts, andcoastlines -
influence the way we build our transportation systems and the foundations of our buildings
and bridges?
15) Optimizing a Car's Ride: How are suspension and steering components calculated to
achieve a balance between handling, comfort, and safety for a specific vehicle design?
