A cord connects two bodies of weights 300 N and 800 N. The two bodies are placed on an inclined plane and cord is parallel to inclined plane. The coefficient of friction for the weight of 400 N is 0.15 and that for 800 N is 0.4. Determine the inclination of the plane to the horizontal and the tension in the cord when the motion is about to take place, down the inclined plane. The body weighing 400 N is below the body weighing 800 N. An open belt drive connects two pulleys 120 cm and 50 cm diameter on parallel shafts 4 m apart. The maximum tension in the belt is 1855 N. The coefficient of friction is 0.3. The driver pulley of diameter 120 cm runs at 200 rpm. Calculate: (i) The power transmitted. (ii) Torque on each of the two shafts. (a) Define centroid and centre of gravity. (b) Find the centre of gravity of the I section shown in figure. 10cm

Derive an expression of moment of inertia of: (i) Circular section. (ii) Hollow circular diction. A particle moves along a straight line with a velocity given by the equation V = 2 t3 t2 2 t + 4 where V is the velocity in m/s and t is time in seconds. When t = 2 sec, the particle is found to be at a distance of 10 m from a station A. Determine: (i) The acceleration. (ii) Displacement of the particle after 6 seconds. Contd. in Page 2

Define impulse and moment. A glass marble whose weight is 0.2 N falls from a height of 10 m and rebounds to a height of 8 m. Find the impulse and the average force between the marble and the floor, if the time during which they are in contact is 1/10 of a second. Define amplitude, frequency, simple pendulum, free vibrations. Write about period of simple harmonic motion. Under what conditions, can a simple pendulum be assumed to have simple harmonic motion. *****
