P

A pendulum, of length L and mass m, suspended at P


moves in a vertical plane through P, and  is the angle L
which the string makes with the vertical at tine t.
C
Disregarding all forces except that of gravity, find m
its motion. Co

A spring for which k = 700 N/m hangs in a vertical

position with its upper end fixed. A mass of 7 kg is
attached to the lower end. After coming to rest, the
k
mass is pulled down 0.05 m and released.
Equilibrium position
Discuss the resulting motion of the mass, under the
following conditions: m
a) Neglecting the medium resistance,
b) The medium offers a resistance equal to i) v/4 m
and ii) 980 v, where v is expressed in m/s.

Find the time required for a cylindrical tank of radius 2.5 m and height 3 m to empty through
a round hole of radius 25 mm in the bottom of the tank, given that water will issue from
such a hole with velocity approximately v = 2.5 h m/s, h being the depth of the water in
the tank .

According to Newton’s law of cooling, the rate at which a substance cools in moving air is
proportional to the difference between the temperature of the substance and that of the air.
If the temperature of the air is 300 K and the substance cools from 370 K to 340 K in 15
minutes, find when the temperature will be 310 K .

A certain chemical dissolves in water at a rate proportional to the product of the amount
undissolved and the difference between the concentration in a saturated solution and the
concentration in the actual solution. In 100 grams of a saturated solution it is known that 50
grams of the substance are dissolved. If when 30 grams of the chemical are agitated with
100 grams of water, 10 grams are dissolved in 2 hours. How much will be dissolved in 5
hours ?
