The meterstick shown is 100 cm long. It is free to pivot around its center of gravity (CG), which is at the 50 cm mark. There is a 24.0 N block hanging from the 80 cm mark. Decide where each of the other blocks should be placed, one at a time, to balance out the 24.0 N block. At what mark on the meter stick would you place a 19.0 N block to balance the 24.0 N block? mark: At what mark on the meter stick would you place a 44.0 N block to balance the 24.0 N block? mark:

When you bend over, a series of large muscles, the erector spinae, pull on your spine to hold you up. Figure shows a simplified model of the spine as a rod of length L that pivots at its lower end. In this model, the center of gravity of the 320 N weight of the upper torso is at the center of the spine. The 160 N weight of the head and arms acts at the top of the spine. The erector spinae muscles are modeled as a single muscle that acts at an 12° angle to the spine. Suppose the person shown bends over to an angle of 30° from the horizontal. a. What is the tension in the erector muscle? Hint: Align your x-axis with the axis of the spine.b. A force from the pelvic girdle acts on the base of the spine. What is the component of this force in the direction of the spine? (This large force is the cause of many back injuries).
The meterstick shown is 100 cm long. It is free to pivot around its center of gravity (CG), which is at the 50 cm mark. There is a 25.0 N block hanging from the 80 cm mark. Decide where each of the other blocks should be placed, one at a time, to balance out the 25.0 N block.

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
Three children are trying to balance on a seesaw, which consists of a fulcrum rock, acting as a pivot at the center, and a very light board 3.4 m long (Figure 1). Two playmates are already on either end. Boy A has a mass of 45 kg, and boy B a mass of 35 kg. ▼ Part A Where should girl C, whose mass is 25 kg, place herself so as to balance the seesaw?

A meter stick balances horizontally on a knife-edge at the 50.0 cm mark. With two 6.35 g coins stacked over the 11.5 cm mark, the stick is found to balance at the 43.4 cm mark. What is the mass of the meter stick?
L = 2.0 m A diver with a mass of 43 kg is standing 1.3 m from the left end of a diving board. This diving board has a mass of 83 kg and a length of 2 meters. It is supported by a pillar that is 0.5 m from the left end (labeled F, in the figure) and a bolt that holds the left end down (labeled F2 in the figure). What is the magnitude of the force from the pillar, labeled F1. F = What is the magnitude of the force from the end of the board, labeled F2. F2 = What position could the diver stand at to make both F, and F2 a minimum? 3:45 PM

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.
Two children are trying to balance on a seesaw, which includes a fulcrum and a board that is 10m long. Boy A has a mass of 50kg, and boy B has a mass of 35kg. How far from the pivot point should boy B be to maintain stable equilibrium?
