For a meter stick of mass 147.89 g, it is found that its weight can be balanced by hanging a 183.99 g mass at the 95.00 cm mark. Where does the center of the weight of the meter stick locate on the meter stick? Enter the number in cm unit.
4. Orin and Ann, two paramedics, rush a 60.0 kg man from the scene of an accident to a waiting ambulance, carrying him on a uniform 3.00 kg stretcher held by the ends. The stretcher is 2.60 m long and the man’s center of mass is 1.00 m from Ann. How much force must Orin and Ann each exert to keep the man horizontal? a. Orin = 230 N, Ann = 388 N b. Orin = 201 N, Ann = 411 N c. Orin = 241 N, Ann = 377 N d. Orin = 141 N, Ann = 477 N e. None of the above
An athlete holds a 7.5-kg shot put in his hand with his lower arm horizontal, as shown in thefigure. His lower arm has a mass of 2.8 kg and its center of gravity (or center of mass) is 12 cmfrom the elbow-joint pivot. How much force must the extensor muscle (which is FM in thefigure) in the upper arm exert on the lower arm? Choices: 500 N 2000 N 1500 N 2500 N 1000 N Show complete solution and free body diagram
The uniform seesaw is balanced at its center of mass, as seen below. The smaller boy on the right has a mass of 40.0 kg. What is mass of his friend?
The board sandwiched between two other boards in Figure P4.91 weighs 95.5 N. If the coefficient of friction between the boards is 0.663, what must be the magnitude of the compression forces (assumed to be horizontal) acting on both sides of the center board to keep it from slipping? Figure P4.91
The leg and cast in Figure P4.20 weigh 220 N (w1). Determine the weight w2 and the angle α needed so that no force is exerted on the hip joint by the leg plus the cast.
Can you draw a free-body diagram of this problem? Three children are trying to balance on a seesaw, which includes a fulcrum rock acting as a pivot at the center, and a very light board 3.2 m long as shown in the figure. Two playmates are already on either end. Boy A has a mass of 45 kg, and boy B a mass of 35 kg. Where should girl C, whose mass is 25 kg, place herself so as to balance the seesaw?
The center of mass of a person may be determined by an arrangement such as the one shown in the figure below. A light plank rests on two scales separated by a distance of d = 1.80 m and reading Fg1 = 470 N and Fg2 = 260 N. Determine the distance of the girl's center of mass from her feet.
IP To determine the location of her center of mass, a physics student lies on a lightweight plank supported by two scales 2.50 m apart, as indicated in the figure (Figure 1). Assume the left scale reads 300 N, and the right scale reads 132 N. Find the student's mass. Find the distance from the student's head to her center of mass.
Two masses are hanging from the ends of a 1 m bar. Where is the balance point of the system? m1 is 1 kg, m2 is 3 kg. Ignore the mass of the bar between the two masses.
A thin 2.50 kg box rests on a 6.00 kg board that hangs over the end of a table, as shown in (Figure 1). How far can the center of the box be from the end of the table before the board begins to tilt?
The chewing muscle, the masseter, is one of the strongest in the human body. It isattached to the mandible (lower jawbone) as shown in Figure P8.33a. The jawbone ispivoted about a socket just in front of the auditory canal. The forces acting on the jawboneare equivalent to those acting on the curved bar in Figure P8.33b.
