A uniform spool is suspended from a vertical wall by a string attached to the spool’s thin axle. The axle is horizontal, as shown below.

only answer d and e! One end (A) of a thin rod rests on a floor, with coefficient of static friction μs. The other end (B) of the rod leans against a frictionless wall. The rod has a length of L and a mass of m. The rod has a uniform density, so the center-of-mass is a distance L/2 from either end. The rod does not move. NOTE: All answers should be written in terms of the given variables only (m, g, L, θ, μs) a) Draw a free body diagram for the rod clearly showing all forces and where they are applied. Hint: There are four forces! b) On your diagram, draw and label the line of action and lever arm for the weight force about point A. c) What is the torque produced by the weight force about point A? d) Using static equilibrium equations, find the three support forces (two at A, one at B). e) Given the coefficient of static friction μs, what is the smallest possible angle before the rod starts to move?

Consider the yo-yo (of mass M and outer radius R) shown in the figure, where the string is being pulled with a force of magnitude F (F < M g) at an angle θ to the horizontal. The radius of the inner axis is r (so that r < R). Assume that the angle ranges from 0 to π/2, and the coefficient of static friction with the ground is very large. 1)Enter an expression for the critical angle (in radians, between 0 and π / 2) at which the yo-yo will remain motionless. Use γ = r / R to simplify your expression.
