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.

the road. The car weighs 12 kN. Find the magnitude of (a) the braking acceleration of the car, (b) the normal force on each rear
wheel, (c) the normal force on each front wheel, (d) the braking force on each rear wheel, and (e) the braking force on each front
wheel. (Hint: Although the car is not in translational equilibrium, it is in rotational equilibrium.)

A tire is tied to a rope that is tied to the branch of a tree so that the tire swings in a circular trajectory of radius h1 = 15.31 m. A child takes the tire to the top of a platform that is a height h2 = 12.60 m above the ground, sits in the tire, and swings from rest from the platform. The combined mass of the tire and child is 36 kg. The rope is taut when the child leaves the platform and you may neglect the mass of the rope.
