Explanation:

This is a static equilibrium problem. In order for static equilibrium to be achieved, there are three things that must be true. First, the sum of the forces in the horizontal direction must all equal. Second, the sum of the forces in the vertical direction must all be equal to zero. Third, the torque around a fixed axis must equal.

Let us begin by summing up the forces in the vertical direction.

的n let us sum up the forces in the horizontal direction

Lastly let us analyze the torque, using the hinge as the axis point whereis the length of the beam.

Looking at these three equations, the easiest to work with would be our torque equation as it is only missing one variable. If we are able to find the tension in thedirection we would then be able to use trigonometry to determine the tension in the cable overall.

我们现在可以替代这个值回我们的版本tical direction equation to determine the force on the hinge in thedirection.

We can go back to our tension in ourdirection and use trigonometry to determine the force of the tension indirection.

Rearrange and solve for the tension in thedirection.

We can now go back to our second equation and substitute this value in.

Explanation:

First let us analyze the torque that is happening on the bucket. There is a torque from the friction on the pulley and there is a torque from the bucket pulling on the pulley.

Next let us analyze the forces involved. There is a tension force pulling up on the bucket and there is the force of gravity pulling down on the bucket.

We can rearrange this to findso that we can substitute it into our torque equation.

Now substitute this into our torque equation

We know that there is a relationship between acceleration and angular acceleration.

So we can substitute this into our equation so that only linear acceleration is present.

We also know that the moment of inertia of the system is equal to the moment of inertia of the pulley plus the bucket.

We can now substitute this into our equation.

We can now starting putting in our known variables to solve for the missing acceleration.

Explanation:

的formula for torque is:

We are given the total torque and the force applied. Using these values, we can solve for the length of the wrench.

Explanation:

If the see-saw isin total, then it hason either side of the fulcrum.

的question is asking us to find the equilibrium point; that means we want the net torque to equal zero.

Now, find the torque for the first child.

We are going to use the force of gravity for the force of the child.

When thinking of torque, treat the positive/negative as being clockwise vs. counter-clockwise instead of up vs. down. In this case, child one is generating counter-clockwise torque. That means that since, child two will be generating clockwise torque.

Solve for the radius (distance) of the second child.

Explanation:

Torque is equal to the force applied perpendicular to a surface, multiplied by the radius or distance to the pivot point.

在这种情况下,一个应用垂直力nd the other at an angle. The one that is applied at an angle, only has a small component of the total force acting in the perpendicular direction. This component will be smaller than the overall force. Therefore the force that is already acting perpendicular to door will provide the greatest torque.

Explanation:

Torque is equal to the force applied perpendicular to a surface, multiplied by the radius or distance to the pivot point.

In this example the boy of mass M is a distance R away and is balancing a girl of mass m at a distance r away.

If both of these kids move to a distance that is one half their original distance.

的half cancels out of the equation and therefore the boy and girl will still be balanced.

Explanation:

Torque is equal to the force applied perpendicular to a surface, multiplied by the radius or distance to the pivot point.

In this case, both forces are equal to one another. Therefore the force that is applied at the point furthest from the axis of rotation (the hinge) will have the greater torque. In this case, the furthest distance is the doorknob.

Explanation:

Torque is a force times the radius of the circle, given by the formula:

In this case, we are given the radius in centimeters, so be sure to convert to meters:

Use this radius and the given force to solve for the torque.

Lastly let us analyze the torque, using the hinge as the axis point whereis the length of the beam.

Looking at these three equations, the easiest to work with would be our torque equation as it is only missing one variable. If we are able to find the tension in the y direction we would then be able to use trigonometry to determine the tension in the cable overall.

We can now use trigonometry to determine the tension force in the wire.

Rearrange to get the tension force by itself.

Explanation:

In order to get the spacecraft spinning, the rockets must supply a torque to the edge of the spacecraft.

We can calculate the moment of inertia of the spacecraft and the 4 rockets along the edge.

的spacecraft can be considered a uniform disk.

的rocket can be calculated

So the total moment of inertia

We can also calculate the angular acceleration of the rocket

Since the spacecraft starts from rest the initial angular velocity is.

的final angular velocity needs to be converted to radians per second.

We also need to convert the 4 minutes to seconds

的refore the total torque applied by the rockets is

Each rocket contributes to the torque. So to determine the torque contributed by one rocket we would divide this by 4

We can now determine the force applied by one rocket through the equation

We can approximate that to about
