A window washer stands on a uniform plank of mass M = 142 kg and length l = 2.80 m supported by 2 ropes attached at the ends of the plank. The window washer has a mass m = 68.0 kg. What is the tension in each of the ropes, T1 and T2, if the window washer's displacement from the center of mass of the plank is x = 0.930 m as shown in Figure 1: Window Washer Problem?
A man holds a double-sided spherical mirror so that he is looking directly into its convex
surface, 33 cm from his face. The magnification of the image of his face is +0.17. What will
be the image distance when he reverses the mirror (looking into its concave surface),
maintaining the same distance between the mirror and his face? Be sure to include the
algebraic sign (+ or -) with your answer.
How do you draw a diagram of the ruler and mass system in equilibrium identifying the anti-clockwise torque and clockwise torque? How do I calculate the anti-clockwise torque and the clockwise torque of the system with the ruler and the washers, does it come from the data in table 4? Please help, thank you!
