Solve for n in the following equations


1.) a= n²/2s


2.) n/a = w/m

If a ship is moving northwest at 15knots and a second ship is moving due east at 7knots, determine the direction and magnitude of the second ship relative to the first


A steel pipe of outside diameter 20 mm and thickness 3 mm is
deflected by 3 mm when used as a beam supported at its ends, 1
m apart, and subjected to a central load of 170 N. Find the
buckling load when the pipe is used as a column with hinged
ends. What is the maximum lateral deflection of this column
before the material attains the yield stress of 250N/mm2?
A water jet with a diameter of 70 mm is deflected by 60⁰ at the velocity of 36 m/s
at the beginning of the blade as shown in figure below. Calculate the magnitude
of the force generated by water on the blade when the velocity of water jet
leaving the blade is 30 m/s due to friction.
A 400 mm diameter pipe carries water under a head of 30 m with a velocity of
3.5 m/s. If the axis of the pipe turns through 46⁰, calculate the magnitude and
the direction of the resultant force at the bend

A critically damped, driven oscillator’s displacement x(t) satisfies the equation of motion

x¨ + 2ω0x˙ + ω

0^2x = f0 cos ωt

(1)

where ω0 is the natural frequency, and ω is the “driving frequency”.

(i) Find the particular solution to the above equation, in the form xp(t) = A cos(ωt + φ).

Your answer should clearly give the expressions for A and φ.

(ii) The homogeneous equation ¨x + 2ω0x˙ +ω0^2x = 0 has e^−ω0t as one solution. Show, by substitution, that the function te^−βt can be the second solution. Find β in terms of ω0.

(iii) Use the above results to construct the complete solution to Eq. 1, subject to the initial conditions x(0) = 0 = ˙x(0).


The building is modeled as a single degree of freedom spring-mass system where the building mass is lumped atop of two beams used to model the walls of the building in bending. Assume the ground motion is modeled as having amplitude of 0.1 m at a frequency of 8 rad/s. Approximate the building mass by 500 kg and the stiffness of each wall by 2x10^6 N/m. Compute the magnitude of the deflection of the top of the
building.
A car traveling on a rough and bumpy road, which is modeled with the basic displacement y (t) = (0.01) sin (5.818t) m. The car suspension system, which is modeled with 1-degree of freedom, has a rigidity of k = 4 x 10^5 N/m, and a damping coefficient of c = 40 x 10^3 kg/s, and the mass of the car m = 1007 kg. Calculate the absolute displacement amplitude of the mass of the car.

A fluid of constant density flows at the rate of 15 liters/sec along a pipe AB of 100 mm diameter. This pipe branches at B into two pipes BC and BD each of 25 mm diameter and a third pipe BE of 50 mm diameter. The flow rates are such that the flow through BC is three times the flow rate through BE and the velocity through BD is 4 m/s. Find the flow rates in the three branches BC, BD, and BE and the velocities in pipes AB, BC, and BE.


You are asked to create a 5" square in assignment #1. That means your vehicle has to drive in a 5" turn, drive 5", turn, drive 5", turn, drive 5" and end up where you began. According to the directions each block is 200mm. How many blocks will the vehicle have to go before its first turn? Explain.
