A spar buoy is a cylindrical object that floats with its axis in the vertical direction

When it is disturbed a distance h from its equilibrium position, the magnitude of the restoring force is equal to ?ghS, where ? is the density of the water and S is the cross-sectional area of the cylinder. A certain spar buoy has a mass of 150 kg, a cross-sectional area of 2.50 m2, and is floating in seawater, ? = 1025 kg/m3. What is the frequency of ocean waves which will cause it to resonate?

Pure iron at room temperature has the BCC structure; however, iron can also be found in the FCC structure at higher temperatures. Predict the lattice parameter of FCC iron if it did form at room temperature, assuming that atoms touch only along the most closely packed directions in both the FCC and BCC structures. The lattice parameter of BCC iron at room temperature is 0.286 nm.

Beam ACB has a sliding support at A and is supported at C by a pinned-end steel column with square cross section (E 5 200 GPa, b 5 40 mm) and height L 5 3.75 m. The column must resist a load Q at B with a factor of safety of 2.0 with respect to the critical load. The max-imum permissible value of Q is approximately:


(A) 10.5 kN
(B) 11.8 kN
(C) 13.2 kN
