    This document contains instructions for an engineering mechanics midterm exam, listing four potential exam questions. Question 1 asks students to explain systems of forces with diagrams and find components of several forces along x and y axes. Question 2 involves stating and deriving Lamis' theorem and determining the maximum horizontal force that can be applied to an object on a 30 degree inclined plane before it slips. Question 3 asks students to briefly discuss a simple screw jack. Question 4 involves deriving an equation for the equilibrium of a body on a rough inclined plane and discussing wedge friction.
