1 == elft University of Technology == Give on the upper right University ourse pplied Mechanics corner of each sheet your NME STUY NUMER and ISIPLINE Exam STTIS / The work of a student who does not fulfill the requirements for taking an exam will not be marked. Notes Only hand in the answer sheets. ny other sheets will not be accepted. Write your name and study number on every sheet. Sheets without name and study number will not be accepted. Write relevant calculations on the answer sheets. Use the blank sides of the answer sheets if necessary. nswers without calculation are not taken into account. Provide the answers with units when applicable. Use possible checks in order to avoid calculation errors. The order of answering the questions is free. N..: this exam consists of 6 problems. The neatness of the presentation of the answers will be considered in the marking. Unless otherwise stated the following holds: Pulleys, hinged joints and supports with hinges are frictionless. The weight of the structure is not taken into account.
