Example 9.1 The Archer
Let us consider the situation proposed at the beginning of
this section. 160kg archer stands at rest on frictionless ice
and fires a 0.50-kg arrow horizontally at 50 m s (Fig. 9.2).
With what velocity does the archer move across the ice after
firing the arrow​

Abeverage can is made of 3004-h19 aluminum alloy (elastic modulus 69 gpa, tensile yield strength 285 mpa, density 2.72 g/cm^3). the dimensions on the can are approximated as a thin-walled cylinder with a height of 4.83 inches, diameter of 2.60 inches. empty the can has a mass of 14.2 g. determine: a. the wall thickness of the cylinder b. assuming a pinned-pinned condition what is the critical load? c. assuming a fixed-fixed condition what is the critical load?

What would be the radius of the earth if it had its actual mass but had the density of nuclei? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

How do the forces acting on a boat compare to the force acting on a plane ?
