The drawing shows three identical springs hanging from the ceiling. nothing is attached to the first spring, whereas a 4.2-n block hangs from the second spring. a block of unknown weight hangs from the third spring. from the drawing, determine (a) the spring constant (in n/m) and (b) the weight of the block hanging from the third spring.

Two wooden members of 80 × 120-mm uniform rectangular cross section are joined by the simple glued scarf splice shown. knowing that β = 22° and that the maximum allowable stresses in the joint are, respectively, 400 kpa in tension (perpendicular to the splice) and 690 kpa in shear (parallel to the splice), determine the largest centric load p that can be applied using mohr's circle. (round the final answer to two decimal places.)
