Concept explainers

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.

Two children of mass 21 kg and 26 kg sit balanced on a seesaw with the pivot point located at the center of the seesaw. If the children are separated by a distance of 2 m, at what distance from the pivot point is the small child sitting in order to maintain the balance? m
To get up on the roof, a person (mass 82.0 kg) places a 6.60 m aluminum ladder (mass 11.0 kg) against the house on a concrete pad with the base of the ladder 2.00 m from the house. The ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2 m from the bottom. The person is standing 3 m from the bottom. What are the magnitudes (in N) of the forces on the ladder at the top and bottom? top N bottom N
The 3.8 m long board shown in the image has a mass of 6.4 kg. The left support is 0.40 m from left end of the board. The right support is 1.2 m from the right end of the board. The cat has a mass of 5.0 kg and starts walking to the right. How far from the right support can the cat walk before the board tips over? (Give your answer in m.) Hints: There are two possible ways to solve this problem 1) Use the center of mass: Find the cat's position when the entire system's center of mass is at the right support. 2) Use torque: Set the pivot point at the right support and find the torque due to the weight of the beam and the weight of the cat. Answer:

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.
The diagram above shows a 3.00 m long uniform beam. The left end of the beam is attached to a wall by a frictionless pivot. The beam is supported by a string that keeps the beam horizontal. The string makes an angle of 35.0° relative to vertical. The beam has a mass of 7.00 kg. A 2.00 kg mass is located at the end of the beam. A 6.00 kg mass is located 1.00 m from the 2.00 kg mass, as shown in the diagram. a. What is the tension in the string? b. What is the y-component of force applied to the beam by the pivot?
