Question 2. The all-wheel drive car shown in Figure 2 is at rest on a level road. The car's mass centre is at G. The car starts moving with an initial acceleration. For this car: (a) Draw the free body diagram showing all the forces acting on the car. (b) Assuming the coefficient of static friction between the tyres and the track is uy for front tyres and H2 for rear tyres, obtain an expression for the maximum possible initial...

Problem 1: An ME 10 student is riding in an elevated trolley car that is suspended from an inclined track by two wheels, C and D. When the drive motor fails, the student uses a rope to slowly pull the car up the incline. If the student must apply a 60-lb force to the rope, what is the combined mass of the student and car? The center of mass of the car and student combined is located at G. The...
Dr. C. #2. (PHYS 121 engineering design exercise) You have seen why cars inherently accelerate quicker in a straight line and have better fuel mileage than an SUV with the same engine; it's because of air drag and the smaller frontal area and better drag coefficient of the car. Now let's think about why cars handle (take turns, change lanes and make other quick maneuvers) better than an SUV. We'l1 simplify our analysis by considering a vehicle of mass M...
Instructions: 1. Draw the schematic of the situation described in the wording of the problem. This schematic includes a list of the data given in the wording of the problem, such as initial position (x, yo), initial velocity Ivo, V, Vol, final position (x,y), final velocity (V, V, W) or maximum height (ym). Make a decision on whether you want to use "y" or "h" for the vertical axis and keep it consistent throughout all the problems. Write down the...
