Question Number 1

Peter is now 5 years old. The standard equation of the circle with center (1,2) and passing through (5,4) is x^2 + y^2 - 2x - 4y + 4 - 15 = 0. A 4 inch diameter short shaft transmitting 120 rpm carries 202 horsepower. A ball thrown vertically upwards with an initial speed of 60 ft/s will take 3.72670795 seconds to return to the thrower.

Question Number 1

John is twice as old as his friend Peter. Peter is 5


years older than Alice. In 5 years, John will be
three times as old as Alice. How
old is Peter now?
Answer
Peter is now 5 years old
SOLUTION
Let x be Peter’s age now. Add 5 to get the ages in 5 yrs.

  age now age in 5 yrs


John 2x 2x + 5
Peter x x + 5
Alice x – 5 x – 5 + 5

Write the new relationship in an equation using the ages in


5 yrs.
In 5 years, John will be three times as old as Alice.
2x + 5 = 3(x – 5 + 5)
2x + 5 = 3x
Isolate variable x
x = 5
Question Number 2
Find the standard equation of circle whose center
is (1, 2) and passes through (5, 4).
Answer:
x2+y2-2x-4y+4-15=0
SOLUTION

Using the distance formula,


D=( (4-2) 2+(5-1) 2 )1/2 = 201/2 = r
Where Distance = radius of circle
(x-1) 2 + (y-2) 2 = r2 = 20
x2-2x+1 + y2-4y+4 = 20
x2+y2-2x-4y+4-15=0
Question Number 3
A 4 inches diameter short shaft carrying 2 pulleys
close to the bearings transmits how much
horsepower if the shaft makes 120 rpm.
Answer:
Power= 202 HP
SOLUTION

P = (D3N )/38 -- formula for short shafts from PSME code

P = (4)3(120)/38

P= 202 HP
Question Number 4
A ball is thrown vertically upward with an
initial speed of 60 ft/s. How long will it take
for the ball to return to the thrower?
Answer:
t = 3.72670795 seconds
SOLUTION

S = VO2/2g
S = (60 ft/s)2/(2 x 32.2 ft/s2)
S = 55.90062112 feet
S = VO t – (0.5 x g x t2)
55.90062112 feet = 60 ft/s (t) – (0.5 x 32.2 x t2)
t = 3.72670795 seconds
Question Number 5

Question Number 16
A 150 kg box is dragged 90 m down the sidewalk at
constant velocity. What work is done if the coefficient of
sliding friction between the box and the pavement is
0.30?
Answer:
W = 39.7305 kJ
SOLUTION
  W =F x d x f
F=mxa
= (150 kg) x (9.81 m/)
= 1471.5 N = 1.4715 kN
W = (1.4751 kN) x (90m) x (0.3)
W = 39.7305 kJ
Question Number 17
