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.

Textbook Question

Chapter 12, Problem 76P

A gymnast with mass 46.0 stands on the end of a uniform balance beam as shown in Fig. 12-80. The beam as shown in Fig. 12-80. The beam is 5.00 m long and has a mass of 250 kg (excluding the mass of the two supports). Each support is 0.540 m from its end of the beam. In unit-vector notation, what are the forces on the beam due to (a) support 1 and (b) support 2?

1. A large power cable carries I = 200 A in a straight line East-West for L = 100 m to a device and returns the same current to the power source in the opposite direction. The return path is also straight and runs parallel to the first path directly above it. Up > North ○ South West- East Device 100 m Current Source Down The cable is made of copper with resistivity po = 17.2×10 Qm and mass density pcu = 8960 kg/m³. The cable has a diameter of d = 8.00 cm. a) What force (magnitude and direction) is exerted on the outgoing (+) cable by the magnetic field of the earth? Use a value of B = 40.0 μT for the earth's field, and assume it points, straight north. [1 point] b) Is there a force between the two cables, and is it attractive or repulsive? Briefly explain your answer. [0.5 points] c) How far apart should the two cables be kept so that the force between them is less than 1.0 N? [1 point] d) Suppose the cables are set apart at the distance you got in c). How much torque is exerted on the…
