Engineering
Engineering Mechanics
Sample problems booklet (with solutions)

The following set of problems is provided:


To aid you in your learning of engineering mechanics; and,
As an example of the acceptable standard for setting out and presenting your work
The best way to make use of these example problems is to attempt them yourself before
looking at the solutions.
The majority of the problems have full handwritten solutions. Your solutions to
quiz/assignment questions should be of similar quality in presentation and format.
A soft copy of these sample problems is available on UTSOnline.

All problems are from Hibbeler Engineering Mechanics Statics, 3rd SI Ed., PrenticeHall
except problems 2/19, 24, 30, 32, 41, 46, 3/6, 8 which are taken from Meriam and Kraige Engineering
Mechanics Statics, 3rd SI Ed., Wiley.
