You have been asked to hang a metal sign of uniform density from a single vertical string. The sign has the triangular shape shown in the figure below.   A sign displaying the words Joe's Cheese Shop is in the shape of a right triangle and hangs by a vertical string from a horizontal surface such that the longer leg of the triangle is horizontal. The vertical string is attached to the upper right half of the triangle's hypotenuse, which is closer to the vertical shorter leg of the triangle.   The bottom of the sign, of length a, is to be parallel to the ground. At what distance from the left end of the sign should you attach the support string? xCM = 2a3/3b2 xCM = 2a/3 xCM = 1 xCM = 2a2/3b

Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, when it is provided with certain amount of force or load. These properties are to be kept in mind for various purposes. When a force is applied to an object, the object may or may not get deformed depending upon its elastic property. But every time the object develops a restoring force against the force applied. This is commonly known as stress. If the object changes its dimensions due to the force applied it develops strain ( which is the ratio of change in dimension to the original dimension).
