The figure shows a pin-jointed plane truss loaded at the point M by hanging a mass of 100 kg. The member LN of the truss is subjected to a load of v

A truss consists of horizontal members (AC, CD, DB and EF) and vertical members (CE and DE) having length 1 each. The members AE, DE and BF are inclined at $${45^0}$$ to the horizontal. For the uniformly distributed load ‘p’ per unit length on the member EF of the truss shown in figure given below, the force in the member CD is

A bullet of mass ‘m’ travels at a very high velocity v (as shown in the figure) and gets embedded inside the block of mass ‘M’ initially at rest on a rough horizontal floor. The block with the bullet is seen to move a distance ‘s’ along the floor. Assuming $$\mu $$ to be the coefficient to kinetic friction between the block and the floor and ‘g’ the acceleration due to gravity what is the velocity v of the bullet?

A steel wheel of 600 mm diameter rolls on a horizontal steel rail. It carries a load of 500 N. The coefficient of rolling resistance is 0.3 mm. The force in N, necessary to roll the wheel along the rail is
