Textbook Question
Chapter 4.2, Problem 1bT
Draw a free-body diagram for the ruler (after it is released from rest). Draw your vectors on the diagram at right. Draw each force at the point at which it is exerted.
Label each force by identifying:
- the type of force.
- the object on which the force is exerted, and
- the object exerting the force.
The diagram you have drawn is called an external free-body diagram.
Is the point at which you placed the gravitational force in your diagram consistent with your knowledge of the net torque about the pivot? Explain.
