A). A 500 gram meter stick has a center of mass at the 50 cm mark. You place a pivot at the 40 cm mark. How much mass must you hang at the 10 cm mark to balance the system?
B). A 500 gram meter stick has a center of mass at the 50 cm mark. You place a pivot at the 20 cm mark. How much mass must you hang at the 10 cm mark to balance the system?
When a person stands on tiptoe (a strenuous position),
the position of the foot is as shown in Figure P8.24a. The total
gravitational force on the body, F, is supported by the force
n exerted by the floor on the toes of one foot. A mechanical
model of the situation is shown in Figure P8.24b, where T is
the force exerted by the Achilles tendon on the foot and R is
the force exerted by the tibia on the foot. Find the values of T,
R, and 0 when F, = n = 700. N.

Understanding the details of timing and forces in motion can improve the performance of athletes, including dancers. Consider the forces involved in a ballet jump called a sauté demi plié. P9.84a shows the sequence of moves in the jump. The dancer starts upright, then quickly bends her knees, moving downward. After she reaches the bottom of this dip, she extends her legs, pushing herself upward. After this upward push, she leaves the ground, beginning a short period of time in the air. P9.84b is a slightly idealized graph of the net force on a 42 kg dancer executing this move.
At what time does the dancer reach the lowest point of her motion, when her speed is zero?A. 0.20 sB. 0.40 sC. Between 0.40 s and 0.70 sD. After 0.70 s
