A uniform plank of wood of mass 32 kg and length 4.0 m is used to cross a ditch. In the ditch is a rock, which is used to support the plank horizontally 0.80 m from one end. The other end is supported by the bank. Calculate the rock's supporting force.


A wire has length l, cross-sectional area a, resistivity p and resistance R. It is compressed to a third of its original length but its volume and resistivity are constant. Show its new resistance is R/9.


A ball is kicked off a cliff at a height of 20m above ground and an angle of 30 degree from the horizontal, it follows projectile motion and lands after a time t. Its velocity at the maximum height it reaches is 20m/s, how long does it take it to land?


If a ball is launched at ground level at a velocity v and angle θ, find an expression for it's height at horizontal distance x.
