A body is projected from the earth's surface with the intention of letting it escape from the earth's gravitational field. What is the minimum escape velocity of the body? [Earth's radius = 6.4 x 103km, g = 10ms-2]
A uniform rod PQ of length 1m and mass 2kg is pivoted at the end p. If load of 14N is placed at the center of the rod, find the force that should be applied vertically upwards at Q to maintain the rod at equilibrium horizontally [g = 10ms-2]
