Rotational Equilibrium And Rotational Dynamics

In physics, the state of balance between the forces and the dynamics of motion is called the equilibrium state. The balance between various forces acting on a system in a rotational motion is called rotational equilibrium or rotational dynamics.

Equilibrium of Forces

The tension created on one body during push or pull is known as force.

Question

F_s

Using the same force table that you used, a student was given two forces and asked to find a single force that would produce equilibrium with the two forces. The two forces were given by providing one of the components and the angle the force made with the positive x- axis. The two forces were as follows: Force 1: Fx = −2.70 N; Theta = 220.0 degreees Force 2: Fy = 3.20 N; Theta = 60.0 degrees (a) For each force, calculate the magnitude of the force and the mass required to produce it. (b) Calculate the mass and its angle of application to produce equilibrium with these two forces. Please specify your angle as counterclockwise positive with respect to the positive x-axis.
Forces F1, F2, and F3 act on the structure depicted in the figure, shown in an overhead view. We wish to put the structure in equilibrium by applying a force, at a point such as P located a distance d from F1, whose vector components are Fh and Fv. We are given that a = 2.1 m, b = 2.6 m, C = 1.15 m, F1 = 18.05 N, F2 = 11.05 N, and F3 = 4.85 N.Find Fh.

Consider the woman doing push-ups in the figure. She has a mass of 49.2 kg, and the distance from her feet to her center of mass is 0.96 m, while the distance from her feet to her hands is 1.75m. a. What force in newtons should the woman in the figure exert on the floor with each hand to do a push-up? Assume that she moves up at a constant speed. b. The triceps muscle at the back of her upper arm has an effective lever arm of 1.95 cm, and she exerts force on the floor at a horizontal distance of 15.5 cm from the elbow joint. Calculate the magnitude of the force in newtons for each triceps muscle. c. How much work in joules does she do if her center of mass rises 0.27 m? d. What is her useful power output, in watts, if she does 25 pushups in one minute? For the sake of simplicity, ignore any power used by her muscles lowering her body during each pushup.

Two masses mA =9.3kg and mB=6.1kg are on inclines and are connected together by a string as shown in the figure. The angles theta subscript A=700 and theta subscript B = 360 .

What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the two blocks? Take g =9.81 m/s2, and express your answer using two decimal places.
Jamal and Dayo are lifting a large chest, weighing 207 lb, by using the two rope handles attached to either side. As they lift and hold it up so that it is motionless, each handle makes a different angle with respect to the vertical side of the chest (Fig. P5.76). If the angle between Jamals handle and the vertical side is 25.0 and the angle between Dayos handle and the vertical side of the chest is 30.0, what are the tensions in each handle? FIGURE P5.76
