For this problem, refer to the figure on the right.
Which force will cause the smallest torque? The axis of rotation is located on the left end as shown in the diagram. Assume all forces have equal magnitude.
Consider the solid disk of mass 13 kg in the diagram below. What is the net torque on the disk about its center? What is the resulting angular acceleration? Assume the radii shown in the figure are 10 cm and 20 cm, and that FA = 25 N and FB = 15 N.
Consider a bar, of length 5.5 m, shown in the figure, being acted on by three forces. The magnitudes of the first two forces are 23 N and 28 N, and the first force is acting on the end of the bar at an angle of 54° as shown.
a)What is the torque, in newton-meters, due to F1 on this bar relative to the left end? Use a coordinate system with positive directed out of the screen.
b)What is the torque, in newton-meters, due to F2 on this bar relative to the left end, if this force is acting at the midpoint of the bar? Use a coordinate system with positive directed out of the screen.
c)What is the magnitude of the force F3, in newtons, if the force is a distance 0.65 m from the left end and the bar is not rotating?
