0.20 L 0.40 L 3. The foot of a ladder rests against a wall and its top is held by a tie rope, as shown in the figure. The ladder weighs 100 N, & its center of gravity is 0.40 of its length from the foot. A 150 N child hangs from the rung that is 0.20 of the length from the top. Determine the tension in the tie rope and the components of the force on the foot of the ladder. Tie rope IS0 N 37 100 N
Two kids are on a uniform seesaw supported at its center. The kid is on the right side of the seesaw has a mass m kg and is at a distance 1.59 from the center of the seesaw. The kid is on the left side of the seesaw has a mass 30.8 kg and is at a distance 1.49 from the center of the seesaw. The seesaw is in static equilibrium. What is the mass m in kg? Give your answer to three significant figures.
In exercise physiology studies, it is sometimes important to determine the location of a person's center of gravity. This can be done with the arrangement shown in the figure below. -2.00 m A light plank rests on two scales that read F 91 = 440 N and F 92 = 320 N. The scales are separated by a distance of 2.00 m. How far from the woman's feet is her center of gravity? m

Which of the following statement is false? A Unit of Torque is Newton Meter. В None of the above. Angular acceleration of object is zero if it is not rotating or rotating with constant angular velocity. An object is said to be in equilibrium if and only if there is no resultant force and no resultant torque. E An object is said to be in equilibrium if and only if there is no resultant force and no resultant torque.
Bob and Anna sit on opposite ends of a uniform see-saw which is 12.0 m in length. The see-saw is balanced by a fulcrum which is located 4.00 m from Bob. Bob has a mass of 85.0 kg, and the see-saw itself has a mass of 100 kg. Anna’s mass is unknown. NOTE THAT THE FULCRUM IS NOT PLACED AT THE CENTER OF MASS OF THE SEESAW!!! a) What is the net torque on the see-saw? Explain clearly and briefly how you know. b) Draw a properly labeled extended force diagram of the see-saw. c) Solve for Anna’s mass.
