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.

Textbook Question

Chapter 11, Problem 80GP

When you arrive at Duke’s Dude Ranch you are greeted by the large wooden sign shown in Figure 11-60. The left end of the sign is held in place by a bolt, the right end is tied to a rope that makes an angle of 20 0° with the horizontal. If the sign is uniform, 3 20 m long, and has a mass of 16 0 kg, what are (a) the tension in the rope, and (b) the horizontal and vertical components of the force, F → , exerted by the bolt?
