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.

Suppose a horse leans against a wall as shown in the figure. The total of the horse and rider is 500 kg. Part a : calculate the magnitude of the force in newtons on each foot of the horse in the figure assuming the center of the mass of the horse between and the weight is equally divided between the two feet on the ground. Part b: what is the minimum coefficient of friction between the hooves and ground? Note that the force exerted by the wall is horizontal.

a. A 1200-N uniform boom of length 2.00 m is supported by a cable, as shown in the figure. The boom is pivoted at the bottom, and a 2000-N weight hands from its top. Find the tension in the cable and the components of the reaction force exerted on the boom by the floor. For the next two parts you can assume that the 2000-N weight is concentrated at the top end of the boom. b. Determine the total moment of inertia of the boom/weight system around the pivot point. c. The cable now breaks, and the boom pivots until the right end hits the floor. Determine the velocity of the right end at the instant before it hits the floor.

A sign is to be hung from the end of a thin pole, and the pole supported by a single cable. Your design firm brainstorms the six scenarios shown below. In scenarios A, B, and D, the cable is attached halfway between the midpoint and end of the pole. In C, the cable is attached to the mid-point of the pole. In E and F, the cable is attached to the end of the pole. Part A Rank the design scenarios (A through F) on the basis of the tension in the supporting cable. Rank from largest to smallest.
