Chapter 11, Problem 21PCE

A string that passes over a pulley has a 0.321-kg mass attached to one end and a 0.635-kg mass attached to the other end. The pulley, which is a disk of radius 9.40 cm, has friction in its axle. What is the magnitude of the frictional torque that must be exerted by the axle if the system is to be in static equilibrium?

The engine of the bus applies a torque of 350.4 N · m to a wheel of radius 0.456 m. Since the wheel does not slip, the road must be applying a force of static friction to the wheel that produces a counter-torque. Moreover, the bus has a constant velocity, so this counter-torque balances the applied torque. What is the magnitude of the static frictional force?

An athlete at the gym holds a 2.0 kg steel ball in his hand. His arm is 70 cm long and has a mass of 4.0 kg . What is the magnitude of the torque about his shoulder if he holds his arm straight out to his side, parallel to the floor? What is the magnitude of the torque about his shoulder if he holds his arm straight, but 55° below horizontal?
