1. At any instant the horizontal position of the weather

balloon shown below is defined by x = (St) ft, where

t is in seconds. If the equation of the path is Y =

x2/10, determine the magnitude and direction of the
velocity and the acceleration when t = 2 s.

2. A train travels at a constant speed of 60 mi/h, crosses over

a road as shown. If the automobile A is traveling at 45 mi/h
along the road, determine the magnitude and direction of
the velocity of the train relative to the automobile.

3. The 50-kg crate shown rests on a horizontal surface for

which the coefficient of kinetic friction is uk = 0.3. If the
crate is
Subjected to a 400-N towing force as shown, determine the
velocity of the crate in 3 s starting from rest.

4. Two smooth disks A and E, having a mass of 1 kg and 2 kg,

respectively, collide with the velocities shown. If the coefficient of
restitution for the disks is e = 0.75, determine the x and y
components of the final velocity of each disk just after collision.

Notice
For all second year civil engineering students
