- A wooden door 2.1 m high and 0.90 m wide is hung by two hinges 1.8 m apart. The lower hinge is 15 cm above the bottom of the door. The center of mass of the door is at its geometric center, and the weight of the door is 260 N, which is supported equally by both hinges. Find the horizontal force exerted by each hinge on the door.arrow_forwardRuby, with mass 55.0 kg, is trying to reach a box on a high shelf by standing on her tiptoes. In this position, half her weight is supported by the normal force exerted by the floor on the toes of each foot as shown in Figure P14.75A. This situation can be modeled mechanically by representing the force on Rubys Achilles tendon with FA and the force on her tibia as FT as shown in Figure P14.75B. What is the value of the angle and the magnitudes of the forces FA and FT?

Part (a) When the worker sits at a distance x = 4.5 m from support A, calculate the force, in newtons, that support B must exert on the beam in order for it to remain at rest.

By using a a metal rod as a lever arm and a fulcrum (or pivot point) the homeowner will have a better chance of moving the rock. The homeowner places the fulcrum a distance ?=0.288 mfrom the rock, which has a mass of 465 kg, and fits one end of the rod under the rock's center of weight. If the homeowner can apply a maximum force of 671 N at the other end of the rod, what is the minimum total length ? of the rod required to move the rock? Assume that the rod is massless and nearly horizontal so that the weight of the rock and homeowner's force are both essentially vertical. The acceleration due to gravity is ?=9.81 m/s2.arrow_forward
