1. Define the total force on a particle, and express a force of 1 pound weight in dynes.

Two particles of masses m, m2 moving in the same straight line are connected by a straight light inelastic string. The forces on the particles are F, F, respectively in the direction of motion (exclusive of the tension of the string). Find the acceleration of the particles and the tension of the string.

2. A train is being drawn up an incline of 1 in 50 by an engine exerting a uniform pull of 100,000 poundals on the first carriage, and a dog running with the train gains on it 5 feet a second. The mass of the carriages is 60 tons, of the engine 40 tons, and friction is neglected. Find the accelerations of the train and dog and the work of the engine in one minute from starting.

3. Two spheres of equal mass having velocities v1 and vv, in the same straight line and in the same direction impinge. Assuming a coefficient of impact e shew that the velocities after impact
