A small experimental vehicle has a total weight W of 1225 lb including wheels and driver. Each of the four wheels has a weight of 85 lb and a centroidal radius of gyration of 20 in. Total frictional resistance R to motion is 94 lb and is measured by towing the vehicle at a constant speed on a level road with engine disengaged. Determine the power output of the engine for a speed of 35 mi/hr up the 13-percent grade (a) with zero acceleration and (b) with an acceleration of 8 ft/sec2. (Hint: Power equals the time rate of increase of the total energy of the vehicle plus the rate at which frictional work is overcome.)

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
