1. Consider the different cases described below for very thin meter sticks. (a) A uniform meter stick of length L = 1.0 m has a 0.20 kg mass suspended by a string from its left side, and rests on a pivot that is 0.25 m from the left side. If the meter stick is in equilibrium, what is its mass? Explain. L 0.20 kg (b) What is the force exerted on the meter stick by the pivot. Explain your answer and reasoning. (c) Evaluate the total torque exerted on the meter stick about the pivot point. Repeat for the total torque evaluated about the left side of the meter stick, where the 0.20 kg mass is attached. Repeat for the total torque evaluated about the far right side of the meter stick. Can you generalize these results to a statement about evaluating the torque for a body that is in equilibrium?
Rotational Equilibrium And Rotational Dynamics
In physics, the state of balance between the forces and the dynamics of motion is called the equilibrium state. The balance between various forces acting on a system in a rotational motion is called rotational equilibrium or rotational dynamics.
Equilibrium of Forces
The tension created on one body during push or pull is known as force.
Hi i have a homework question.
I have attached a picture of the question. i noticed it has also on bartley.
