Calculate the anti-clockwise torque and the clockwise torque of the system with the ruler and the washers. Record these values in Data Table 5. Ruler = 11.56 g, small washer = 1.85 g, large washer = 24.30 g.
Calculate the % Difference in the Torques and record the values in Data Table 5.
Is ΣAnticlockwise torque and Anticlockwise torque the same thing, are they solved in the same way?
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?
