Not illustrated. 1909 Excerpt: ... (Be careful to express all forces in the same units. The theorem may be proven by the fact that a perfect square, (m2--n)3, is positive.) 10. Over a pulley passes a string to one end of which is attached a weight 10 lb., and to the other a weight 8 Ib. with a rider 4 Ib. After being in motion 5 sec. the rider is removed without checking the velocity. How much farther will the system move? 11. With what velocity must a particle be projected downward in order to overtake in 10 sec. a body that has already fallen 100 ft. from rest at the same point? 12. Given a point and a vertical line a distance d from it, find the inclination of the straight line which would guide a particle acted upon by gravity only, from the point to the line in the briefest time. 13. Consider the same problem when the line is not vertical. 14. What is the weight by a spring balance of a man of 160 lb. descending in an elevator with an acceleration 2 ft. per sec. per sec.? 15. A high jumper in jumping raises his center of mass 3 ft. How high could he jump on the surface of the moon, where he weighs one sixth as much? How long is he off the ground in both cases? (Assume he leaves the ground with the same velocity in both casest) 16. If a motor car with speed 40 mi. per hr. can be stopped by its brakes in a hundred yards, find the inclination of a hill on which the brakes would just hold it.. 17. A train with velocity 30 mi. per hr. runs with steam shut off against a resistance of 10 lb. per T. How far will it go? 18. A train running at 15 rni. per hr. with steam shut off strikes an up grade of 1 in 300. The resistance due to friction and air averages 3 lb. per T. Find how far the train will run before stopping. 19. A train of weight 200 T. descends a grade of inclination i = arcsin T...
