Calculate the magnitude of the force FB in the back muscles that is needed to support the upper body plus the box and compare this with his weight. The mass of the upper body is 55.0 kg and the mass of the box is 30.0 kg.

Aplate clutch has a single pair of mating friction surfaces 250-mm od by 175-mm id. the mean value of the coefficient of friction is 0.30, and the actuating force is 4 kn. a) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-wear model. b) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-pressure model.

Atmospheric air has a temperature (dry bulb) of 80° f and a wet bulb temperature of 60° f when the barometric pressure is 14.696 psia. determine the specific humidity, grains/lb dry air. a. 11.4 c. 55.8 d. 22.5 b. 44.1

Acertain flow of air (at stp) has a velocity distribution given by v i (in ft/s). if this flow is going through a 4 ft square area in the yz-plane (centered at the origin), what is the mass flow rate (in lbm/s)?
