Answer to Problem 101QAP

Clockwise torque= τclockwise=1.75Nm

Counter-clockwise torquey1 = 3 τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  COLLEGE PHYSICS,VOLUME 1, Chapter 8, Problem 101QAP , additional homework tip  1

Formula used:

Torque can be interpreted as,

  τ=Fr ( τ= Torque, F= Force, r= distance from rotational axis)

Calculation:

Consider the clockwise torque,

  τclockwise=0.1kg*10ms2*10*102m+50*103kg*10ms2*50*102m+0.2kg*10ms2*70*102m

  τclockwise=(1+2.5+14)*101Nm

  τclockwise=1.75Nm

Consider the vertical forces of the system,

  Fpivot=(0.1kg+0.2kg+0.050kg)10ms2

  Fpivot=(0.350kg)10ms2

  Fpivot=3.5N

Consider the counter-clockwise torque,

  τcounterclockwise=3.5N*50*102m

  τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

Conclusion:

Clockwise and counter-clockwise torques acting on the board due to the four forces shown about an axis pointing out of the page at the 0cm point are;

  τclockwise=1.75Nm

  τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

To determine

  (b)

Clockwise and counter-clockwise torques acting on the board due to the four forces shown about an axis pointing out of the page at the 50cm point.

Answer to Problem 101QAP

Clockwise torque= τclockwise=0.4Nm

Counter-clockwise torque= τcounterclockwise=0.4Nm

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  COLLEGE PHYSICS,VOLUME 1, Chapter 8, Problem 101QAP , additional homework tip  2

Formula used:

Torque can be interpreted as,

  τ=Fr ( τ= Torque, F= Force, r= distance from rotational axis)

Calculation:

Consider the clockwise torque,

  τclockwise=0.2kg*10ms2*20*102m

  τclockwise=0.4Nm

Consider the counter-clockwise torque,

  τcounterclockwise=0.1kg*10ms2*(5010)*102m

  τcounterclockwise=0.4Nm

Conclusion:

Clockwise and counter-clockwise torques acting on the board due to the four forces shown about an axis pointing out of the page at the 50cm point are;

  τclockwise=0.4Nm

  τcounterclockwise=0.4Nm

To determine

  (c)

Clockwise and counter-clockwise torques acting on the board due to the four forces shown about an axis pointing out of the page at the 100cm point.

Answer to Problem 101QAP

Clockwise torque= τclockwise=1.75Nm

Counter-clockwise torque= τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  COLLEGE PHYSICS,VOLUME 1, Chapter 8, Problem 101QAP , additional homework tip  3

Formula used:

Torque can be interpreted as,

  τ=Fr ( τ= Torque, F= Force, r= distance from rotational axis)

Calculation:

Consider the clockwise torque,

  τclockwise=Fpivot*50*102m

  τclockwise=0.35N*50*102m

  τclockwise=1.75Nm

Consider the counter-clockwise torque,

  τcounterclockwise=0.2kg*10ms2*(10070)*102m+0.050kg*10ms2*(10050)*102m+0.100kg*10ms2*(10010)*102m

  τcounterclockwise=(0.6Nm+0.25Nm+0.9Nm)

  τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

Conclusion:

Clockwise and counter-clockwise torques acting on the board due to the four forces shown about an axis pointing out of the page at the 100cm point are;

  τclockwise=1.75Nm

  τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

To determine

  (d)

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  COLLEGE PHYSICS,VOLUME 1, Chapter 8, Problem 101QAP , additional homework tip  4

Formula used:

Torque can be interpreted as,

  τ=Fr ( τ= Torque, F= Force, r= distance from rotational axis)

Calculation:

Consider the conclusions of (a),(b),(c) parts,

According to conclusion (a),

  τclockwise=1.75Nm

  τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

So,

  τclockwise=τcounterclockwise...(1)

According to conclusion (b),

  τclockwise=0.4Nm

  τcounterclockwise=0.4Nm

So,

  τclockwise=τcounterclockwise...(2)

According to conclusion (c),

  τclockwise=1.75Nm

  τcounterclockwise=1.75Nm

So,

  τclockwise=τcounterclockwise...(3)

Conclusion:

According to (1),(2),(3) expressions,

Stability of the stick after the two masses have been added is still strong. In other words system has stabilized.
