A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in the figure below. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. The mass of the sign is 22.0 kg, and the mass of the potted plant is 65.5 kg (a) Assuming the objects are in equilibrium, determine the magnitude of the static friction force experienced by the potted plant. (b) What is the maximum value of the static friction force if the coefficient of static friction between the pot and the roof is 0.635?
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.
