Engineering Mechanics QP-updated

The document is an exam paper for an Engineering Mechanics course consisting of two parts - Part A with 3 short answer questions and Part B with 3 long answer questions. Part A asks students to state Lamis theorem, differentiate between centroid and center of gravity, and determine the radius of gyration for a square. Part B contains questions about tension in strings suspending a body, forces acting at an origin, and finding the moment of inertia for a cross-sectional area.
