A haulage rope winds on a drum of radius 500 mm, the free end being attached to a truck. The truck has a mass of 500 kg and is initially at rest. The drum is equivalent to a mass of 1250 kg with radius of gyration 450 mm. The rim speed of the drum is 0.75 m/s before the rope tightens. By considering the change in linear momentum of the truck and in the angular momentum of the drum, find the speed of the truck when the motion becomes steady.

A bathtub can be filled by 2 inlet pipes in 10 minutes and 15 minutes respectively. A person leaves the tub after opening both the pipes simultaneously and returns at the moment when the tub is expected to get filled. He finds that the drainage pipe was also open so he now closes it. In 3 minutes more, the tub gets filled. What will be the time taken by the drainage pipe to empty a completely filled tub?
There are seven persons - A, B, C, D, E, F and G. They have different weights. The weight of second heaviest person is 185 kg and the weight of second lightest person is 85 kg.
