Answer any Five questions.
Assume missing data if necessary.

1 A Roller of weight 1000N rests on a smooth inclined plane is kept from rolling (20 M)
down the plane by a string AC as shown in Figure-1. Find the tension in the string
T and reaction at the point of contact D.

Figure-1
2 State and prove Varignon’s theorem. (20 M)

3 A man weighing 75 N stands on the middle rung of a 25 N ladder resting on a (20 M)


smooth floor and a against a wall as shown in Figure-2, The ladder is prevented
from slipping by a string OD, Find the Tension in the string and reactions at the
points of contact A and B.

Figure-2
4 A block weighing 1000N is to be raised by means of a 150 wedge B 500N, as shown (20 M)
in Figure-3. Assuming the coefficient of dry friction between all contact surfaces to
be 0.2, determine what minimum horizontal force P should be applied to raise the
block.

5 A Simply supported carries a system of loads as shown in Figure-4. Determine the (20 M)
reactions at supports.

7 Determine the moment of inertia of the plane area as shown in the figure-6 about (20 M)
the centroidal X axis and centroidal Y axis.

8 In the system of pulleys, the pulleys are massless and the strings are inextensible (20 M)
as shown in the figure-7. If the system is released from rest, find:
i) Tension in each of the three strings.
ii) Acceleration of each of the three masses.

9 A boy having mass of 60 Kg and a girl having mass of 50 Kg stand motionless at (20 M)
the end of a boat which has a mass of 30 Kg as shown in the figure-8. If they
exchange their positions, determine the final position of the boat. Neglect friction.

Figure-8
10 Two particles of masses 10 Kg and 20 Kg are moving along a straight line towards (20 M)
each other at velocities of 4 m/s and 1 m/s respectively as shown in the figure-9. If
e=0.6, determine the velocities of the particles immediately after their collision.
Also find the loss of kinetic energy.
