Chapter 4.2, Problem 1aT

A ruler is placed on a pivot and held at an angle as shown at right. The pivot passes through the center of the ruler.

Predict the motion of the ruler after it is released from rest. Explain your reasoning.

Chapter 4.2, Problem 1aT, A ruler is placed on a pivot and held at an angle as shown at right. The pivot passes through the
Check your prediction by observing the demonstration.

1. Is the angular acceleration of the ruler in a clockwise sense, in a counterclockwise sense, or zero? Explain how you can tell.

What does your answer imply about the net torque on the ruler about the pivot? Explain.

2. What is the direction of the acceleration of the center of mass of the ruler? If a cm = 0 , state that explicitly. Explain how you can tell.

What does your answer imply about the net force acting on the ruler? Explain.

Calculate the torque using the moment arm.  (Only using a vertical line and ruler.) Hint: Show your work, as usual, start with the equation in symbols, then put in the numbers with units all the way through. If you don't know how to use the equation formatting please handwrite your calculation and upload the image (upright and cropped appropriately).
Please solve all i know Bartelby rules but solve all questions. Qno1 . A sanding disk with rotational inertia 9.0x 103 kg-m is attached to an electric drill whose motor delivers a torque of magnitude 43 N-m about the central axis of the disk. About that axis and with torque applied for 52 ms, what is the magnitude of the (a) angular momentum and (b) angular velocity of the disk? a) numbers (?) Units (?) b) numbers (?) Units(?)   2) A wheel starts from rest and has an angular acceleration that is given by a (t)-6 rad/s) The angle through which it turns in time t is given by: a) ((1/8)trad/s⁴ b) ([1/4]r" rad/s⁴ c) ((1/2)trad/s⁴ d) ((t") rad/s² c) 12rad   3) A disk, initially rotating at 144 rad/s, is slowed down with a constant angular acceleration of magnitude 3.75 rad/s². (a) How much time does the disk take to stop? (b) Through what angle (rad) does the disk rotate during that time? a) numbers(?) Units(?)  b) numbers (?) Unjts(?)   4) Ameter stick balances horizontally on a knife-…
PLEASE PUT SOLUTION (WHY) // WHY THE REASON OF THAT ANSWER (?) 1. What should be done to increase the generated torque on a bar, with one end fixed to a point, without increasing the applied force? A. Make the moment arm shorter. B. Increase the weight of the moment arm. C. Move the axis of rotation closer to the point where force is applied. D. Increase the length of the moment arm. 2. How will the generated torque change if you move the axis of rotation from the middle of a bar to its left end, given that the applied force is applied at its right end? A. Torque will be doubled. B. Torque will increase 1.5 times the original. C. Torque will remain the same. D. Torque will be halved.
