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.

Question

In the figure, a man is trying to get his car out of mud on the shoulder of a road. He ties one end of a rope tightly around the front bumper and the other end tightly around a utility pole 12 m away. He then pushes sideways on the rope at its midpoint with a force of 400 N, displacing the center of the rope 0.47 m from its previous position, and the car barely moves. What is the magnitude of the force on the car from the rope? (The rope stretches somewhat.)

**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram shows a car with a rope attached to its front bumper, stretching horizontally to a utility pole. The midpoint of the rope is displaced upward, indicated by an arrow labeled \( \vec{F} \).

**Input Fields:**
- **Number:** A field to input the magnitude of the force.
- **Units:** A dropdown menu to select the unit of force.

Two objects (m1=11.0 kg and m2=3.00 kg) are separated by 40.0 cm. A third object (m3=1.00 kg) is placed at a location along the line connecting them such that the net force acting on it is zero. By considering the force vectors, this location must be between the two original objects. We will define x as the distance between m1 and m3 and y as the distance between m2 and m3. 1) Find the distance between 11.0-kg object and 1.00-kg object along the line AB where a small, 1.00-kg object could rest such that the net gravitational force on it due to the two objects shown is exactly zero. (Express your answer to two significant figures.)

My sister Crystal of mass M1=50kg is on an ice covered sidewalk with her dog Buster, who has mass M2=38kg. They are initially distanced d=5.00m apart. By pulling on the massless leash, my sister exerts a constant force F=30.00N on Buster, Buster slides towards her. How fast is Buster moving when he and my sister meet? (The leash is not rigid, so the distance can change between them. They also end at the same point, which means even if you cannot solve for their position, you can set them equal to one another)

A 686 N park ranger uses a basket and a rope-pulley system to transport an injured sea turtle up to a plateau, as shown in the figure. The sea turtle and basket together have a mass of 50.0 kg. The ranger holds firmly onto the rope and walks away from the cliff, speeding up at a steady rate of 0.300 m/2 2. He thereby causes the basket (and the turtle) to accelerate straight upwards at the same rate. Assume that the rope has negligible weight and that the pulley is ideal, having no friction in its bearing. Also assume that as the ranger trudges along, his feet do not slip on the ground. +x 26.

A 2.50 kg box sits halfway up a 16.0 m long ramp that is inclined at an angle of 16.00. You shove a second box, of mass 1.50 kg, that's at the bottom of the ramp, so that it starts sliding up the ramp with a speed of 20.0 m/s. It hits the first box, sticks to it, and they both continue to slide up the ramp. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the boxes and the ramp is 0.200. Where, from the bottom of the ramp, do they come to rest?
