- A meter stick (a uniform thin rod of length 1.0 m and mass 0.39 kg) is placed on a fulcrum at the 54 cm mark, about which the meter stick can pivot. At what position (measured from the 0 cm end of the meter stick) should a 0.22 kg mass be hung to balance the system? Give your answer in cm, rounded to the nearest cm.A block of mass M = 6.1 kg rests upon a beam of mass mb = 12.8 kg as shown. The beam has length L = 5.4 m, and the block is placed at a distance of d = 1.8 m from the left end of the beam. (a) Find the reading of scale A in N. (b) Find the reading of scale B in N.The fishing pole in the figure makes an angle of 20.0o with the horizontal. What is the torque exerted by the fish about an axisperpendicular to the page and passing through the angler’s hand if the fish pulls on the fishing line with a force of 100 N at anangle 37.0o below the horizontal? The force is applied at a point of 2.00 m from the angler’s hands.
- A horizontal wire holds a solid uniform ball of mass (m) in place on a tilted ramp that rises 35.0° above the horizontal. ihe Surface of this ramp is perfectly smooth, and the wire is directed anay from the cen ter of the ball.

A cable, attached to the building, is attached to the rod at a point that is 2.10 m from the hidge. (See the figure.)The mass of the rod is 6.50 kg. The mass of the sign is 9.40 kg. The angle between the building and the rod is 73.0 degrees. The angle between the cable and the horizontal is 30.0 degrees.What is the torque on the rod due to the weight of the sign alone? [Take the axis to be at the hinge.]A person exerts a horizontal force of 42 N on the end of a door 96 cm wide.

- To get up on the roof, a person (mass 70.0 kg) places a 6.00 m aluminum ladder (mass 10.0 kg) against the house on a concrete pad with the base of the ladder 2.00 m from the house. The ladder rests against the plastic rain gutter which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2.00 m from the bottom. The person is standing 3.00 m from the bottom. What are the magnitudes of the forces on the ladder at the top and bottom?Please asapTo get up on the roof, a person (mass 62.0 kg) places a 6.80 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 top of the ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2.00 m from the base, as measured along the ladder. The person is standing on the ladder 3.00 m from the base, as measured along the ladder. Find the normal reaction and friction forces (in N) on the ladder at its base. (Enter the magnitudes.) normal reaction force friction force
- If you and your friend are sitting on a seesaw and their masses are 60 kg and 80 kg, (a) how far you have to sit from the center of seesaw to balance it if your friend is sitting at 30 cm from the center on other side? (b) What are torques created by each of you? What are the directions of torque?A person with a 800 N weight is standing 2 meters from the left of a five meter wide uniform plank that weights 1200 N. The plank is held by two verticla ropes on either end. What are the tensions of both ropes?Consider a teeter-totter that is made out of pine, shown below. A pineapple sits on one side of the teeter-totter, a distance 1.09 m from the pivot point, while an apple (non-pine) sits on the other side, a distance of 2.63 m from the pivot. If the pineapple has a mass 132 g, what must the mass of the apple be in order to balance the teeter-totter (i.e. to maintain rotational equilibrium)?
