A beam rests on a fulcrum, 1.5 meters from one end. A weight of 463 kg is suspended from this end causing the beam to balance. If the weight of 463 is suspended on the opposite end of the beam, it is necessary to suspend a 2398 kg weight on the first end in order to effect an even balance. Use g = 9.81 m/s2. Find the length of the beam
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.
