1 Your name: _________________________________________________________________ Your R-number: ____________________________________ Your Lab Section number: ________________________________ PHYS 1408 Principles of Physics I, Fall 2023 Week-9 Lab Homework: Statics and Torque for the Lab meetings in the Week of November 6 Policies for this Lab Homework assignment: This lab homework assignment counts 100 points in total. Full calculations and final answers must be written so as to receive the credit for each question. You can attach additional pages of your calculations after this page. Your full solutions should be included in a single PDF file, and you submit this a single PDF file to your Lab TA through TTU Blackboard before the deadline specified for your Lab section. Late submission won’t be accepted. Only those who attended this Week-9 Lab are eligible to submit their solutions to this homework assignment. Your Lab TA will grade your full solutions submitted before the deadline. Your Lab TA and the lab director won’t answer any questions about this lab homework assignment before your grade for this assignment is posted officially. Policies of Academic Integrity ( TTU OP 34.12 ) applies to this homework assignment. You can discuss with other students in this class. You can refer to the textbook of this course. But your full solutions should be based on your own work and should be free from plagiarism. Usage of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is prohibited. Problem 1: This figure shows forces acting at various points on a metal bar. Suppose that the angles ࠵? = 48°, ࠵? = 32°, ࠵? = 28°. The length of this bar is = 2.8 m. (a) [25 points] Find the magnitude of the net torque (in m · N) on this bar about an axis through point C perpendicular to the page. (Point C is at the geometrical center of this bar, as depicted in this figure.) Show your full calculations. (b) [25 points] Find the magnitude of the net torque (in m · N) on this bar about an axis through point O perpendicular to the page. (Point O is at the left end of this bar, as depicted in this figure.) Show your full calculations. Note: This figure was drawn NOT to the right scale. Thus, one cannot use rulers and protractors to solve this problem. [Go on to the Next Page.] Raeleen Lozano R11789685 525
2 Problem 2: [50 points] In a physics lab, a student puts two hands on one weight scale, and two feet on the other weight scale, as shown in the figure. (The two weight scales were not drawn in this figure.) Note that this figure was NOT drawn to the right scale. Thus, one cannot obtain the correct answers based on measurement of the figure by rulers. Suppose that the distance between the two weight scales is 1.60 m L = . The reading on the weight scale for his two feet is 60 lbs f N = , and the reading on the weight scale for his two hands is 120 lbs s N = . The weight of this student is 180 lbs W = . (Note that pound (lb) is also a unit for weight or force. When being used as a unit for weight or force, pound is commonly called “pound - force.” The conversion from pound (pound-force) to Newton is 1 lb = 4.448 N .) Obtain the distance C x , which is the horizontal distance between the location of his two feet and the location of the center of gravity of his body. Show your full calculations. (This distance C x is also depicted in the figure below.)
