A 0.643 kg cat sits at the end of a 15.7 kg, 11.2 m long beam. An accident occurs and the support cable breaks, causing the beam to rotate without friction until it hits the wall. If the cat held onto the end of the beam what would its speed be as it impacts the wall? (however, it is smart and jumps off part way down
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.
