A rod assembly rotates around its z-axis. The mass C is 10 kg and its initial velocity is 2 m/s. A moment (M = 8t2 + 5 N·m ) and force (F=60 N) both act as shown. What is the angular impulse about z-axis due to only external force F, after 2 seconds?

A man hits the 50-g golf ball such that it leaves the tee at an angle of 40° with the horizontal and strikes the ground at the same elevation a distance of 20 m away. Determine the impulse of the club C on the ball. Neglect the Impulse caused by the ball’s weight while the club is striking the ball.

A sports car has a mass of 2 Mg and an engine efficiency of e = 0.65. Moving forward, the wind creates a drag resistance on the car of FD = 1.2v2 N, where v is the velocity in m/s. The car accelerates at 5 m/s2, starting from rest. What is the magnitude of the velocity of the car when t=4 s.

Two equal-length springs having a stiffness kA = 300 N/m and kB = 200 N/m are “nested” together in order to form a shock absorber. If a 2-kg block is dropped from an at-rest position 0.6 m above the top of the springs, determine their deformation when the block momentarily stops.
