Differential equation. how to solve?

1. (x^2 + 2xy - 4y^2) dx - ( x^2 - 8xy - 4 y^2)dy=0
2. y(9x-2y)dx-x(6x-y)dy=0; when: x=1; y=1/2

Grabber - statics example

Hello,

We should get the length x , when the grabber can just hold the box.

I made two moment equations:
M1M2

Then I put them together into one equation: m1m2

Bernoulli's differential equation

Hello ,please someone should help with out with these Diffrential equations
a. xdy + ydx = x^3 y^6 dx
b. cosysin2xdx +(cos^2y - cos^x)dy = 0

Combined Stresses

Most often, a structural member is subjected to different types of stresses that acts simultaneously. Such stresses are axial, shear, flexure, and torsion. Superposition method is used to determine the combined effect of two or more stresses acting over the cross-section of the member.
 

Axial stress
$$\sigma = \pm\dfrac{P}{A}$$
 

Shear stress
$$\tau = \dfrac{VQ}{Ib}$$
 

Flexural stress
$$\sigma_f = \dfrac{Mc}{I}$$
 

Torsional stress
$$\tau = \dfrac{T\rho}{J}$$
 

Combined Axial and Bending

Problem 902
Compare the maximum stress in bent rod 1/2 in. square, where the load P is 1/2 in. off center as shown in Figure P-902, with the maximum stress if the rod were straight and the load applied axially.

Problem 903 | Combined Axial and Bending

Problem 903
A cast iron link is 40 mm wide by 200 mm high by 500 mm long. The allowable stresses are 40 MPa in tension and 80 MPa in compression. Compute the largest compressive load P that can be applied to the ends of the link along a longitudinal axis that is located 150 mm above the bottom of the link.

Colored beads

there were 198 blue beads in Box A and 219 Pink beads in Box B. some green beads were added to Box A and some yellow beads were added to Box B. for every 3 blue beads in Box A, 13 green once were added to Box A as s result, Box A had 4 times as many beads as Box B. how many yellow beads were added to Box B?

Strength of Materials (Stresses in a truss)

Mga idol. Pwede pa turo pano to? Thanks in advance.

Problem 1

For a truss loaded as show, choose the lightest 2-angle sections to safely carry the maximum stress. The yielding stress of steel is 240 MPa. Use allowable compressive stress of 0.45 of the yielding stress and allowable tensile stress of 0.60 of the yielding stress. Assume that provision for buckling is provided.
F1 = 15 KN; F2 = 14 KN

Can you help me to solve bolt calculate? how can I find document and exercises? Please help me.

Problem 904 | Combined Axial and Bending

Problem 904
To avoid interference, a link in a machine is designed so that its cross-sectional area is reduced one half at section A-B as shown in Fig. P-904. If the thickness of the link is 50 mm, compute the maximum force P that can be applied if the maximum normal stress on section A-B is limited to 80 MPa.
