Yeah that looks like a typo. The increase in length has been confirmed correct as part of another question. Thanks for the confirmation.

Homework Statement (c) A standard aluminium ingot is 746 mm in length at 20°C. When the ingots reach a temperature of 500°C. Calculate:(ii) the induced force in an ingot assuming it has become jammed in the furnace and is NOT free to expand y =...

Hi, wondering if any can have a look a the below to see if my working outs are correct. Thanks. 1. Homework Statement Determine the two support reactions at positions ‘A’ and ‘B’ for the following simply supported beam which is acted on by a uniformly distributed load (UDL) and two point...

Chet, Both solutions return the same figures. I am confident I have submitted the work correct. Thank you kindly for your assistance. It has been greatly appreciated.

Hi Chester, Thanks for the info. To be totally honest this all pretty much new to me and will take me a day to comprehend the above. I understand the basic formula, but when it's come to algebraic terms and integration I'm lost. I've looked over my notes again and the only I can resolve which...

Hi Chester, I believe that he is making reference to the final question which is to calculate the force required to keep the clasp shut; a) Calculate the required resisting force at the clasp to keep the panel shut. Amended work

Hi Chester, Thanks for your input. However, I am slightly confused. I had to ask the tutor who issued the work for clarity on the question; Is this the forces acting on the wall and the base of the tank? YES The way I read the question is that it is two forces acting on one side? YES -...

I've redone the workings, and hope this is somewhere along the lines of being correct. I've based my workings on the following - http://physics.usask.ca/~chang/course/ep324/lecture/lecture8.pdf

1. Homework Statement A fresh water storage tank in a factory is shown in the figure above. Its top side is denoted as C, the narrow side as B and the long side as A. In order to allow regular maintenance and cleaning side A is hinged at its bottom edge and secured using a heavy-duty clasp at...

Thanks. I had Newtons wrote down, Just typed the answer here wrong.

Hi All, I've been asked to re-work the below as my original method was incorrect. Below is my second attempt on the question, which I would appreciate some input from someone a more knowledgeable than myself. Thanks, 1. Homework Statement A racing car of mass 850 kg accelerates from 20...

Thanks. I think this was the answer I was looking for. The comments on the work said Velocities require to be in m/s. Was a simple case of converting km/h to m/s.

Hi, I've been asked to solve below as part of an assignment. Below is pretty much what I've submitted but it has been concluded to be incorrect. I am unsure as to why hence the question. Is it due to the fact that I have not taken the mass or forces into consideration? I have only taken these...

Hi All, Looking for some help (any is greatly appreciated). I've been tasked with the below, and am unable to find a worked example to cross check my work against. If anyone with a greater knowledge than me could have a look at the below and advise if I'm right the right track. Thanks 1...
