For a Fredholm integral equation of the first and second kind explicit solutions are obtained for the kernel function \[ K(x,y)=\sqrt{xy}\int_0^\infty \lambda^\alpha J_n(x\lambda)J_n(y\lambda) d\lambda. \] Here, \(J_n\) is a Bessel function of the first kind. Many classical kernel functions like Carleman, logarithmic, and elliptic kernels, have the above form. The results are applied for an approximation scheme for a Volterra-Fredholm integral equation of the first kind in three variables \((t,x,y)\) which arises in a contact problem in the theory of elasticity. As a side result, several eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for integral operators with special kernels are calculated.
