A square plate (4 m on each side) is fixed from a pivot point and can rotate around this point. The point is located on the top right corner of the square. Each of the three forces applied (one on the top, 3 N, one on the left side, 1 N, and one on the bottom, 5 N) are applied perpendicular to their respective side. Find the total torque applied by the given forces and state which direction the plate will rotate.
A rod has 14.0 kg of mass distributed uniformly over its length of 2.50 m and is suspended by two cords. Right after the rope is cut calculate the magnitude of the torque acting on it.
For two existing torques, what third force at a given distance from the pivot will balance them? Imagine a meter stick set up as in the figure. It hangs from a central bracket, and two hanging masses can hang from it from each of their brackets. At a third location, a force probe can either pull up or pull down on the stick, depending on what is needed to balance the stick. The mass of the meter stick is 120 g. sketch the situation (drawing r1, r2, r3, F1, F2, and F3) and determine the magnitude (value) and direction (+ or -) of each torque. Don't include the mass of a bracket that would hold the hanging mass in place; assume the mass listed is the entire mass hanging at that point. For each trial, use the principle of equilibrium (where the sum of torques is zero) to calculate the third, unknown force acting at x3

The wheels, axle, and handles of a wheelbarrow weigh W = 55 N. The load chamber and its contents weigh WL = 623 N. The drawing shows these two forces in two different wheelbarrow designs. To support the wheelbarrow in equilibrium, the man’s hands apply a force to the handles that is directed vertically upward. Consider a rotational axis at the point where the tire contacts the ground, directed perpendicular to the plane of the paper. Find the magnitude of the man’s force for both designs.
A machine part has the shape of a solid uniform sphere of mass 220 gg and diameter 3.50 cmcm . It is spinning about a frictionless axle through its center, but at a point at the top of the sphere, it is scraping against metal, resulting in a friction force of 0.0200 NN at that point. Find the angular acceleration of the sphere, including the direction (a positive value would indicate the +z direction and a negative value would indicate the -z direction).
Suppose an automobile engine can produce 195 N⋅m of torque, and assume this car is suspended so that the wheels can turn freely. Each wheel acts like a 14 kg disk that has a 0.195 m radius. The tires act like 2.15-kg rings that have inside radii of 0.18 m and outside radii of 0.34 m. The tread of each tire acts like a 8.5-kg hoop of radius 0.335 m. The 16-kg axle acts like a solid cylinder that has a 1.75-cm radius. The 29.5-kg drive shaft acts like a solid cylinder that has a 3.25-cm radius. Calculate the angular acceleration, in radians per squared second, produced by the motor if 95.0% of this torque is applied to the drive shaft, axle, and rear wheels of a car.
