Chapter 9: Q4 PE (page 316)

Use the second condition for equilibrium(net 蟿=0)to calculateFPinExample 9.1, employing any data given or solved for in part (a) of the example.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The calculated force is FP=568N.

Step by step solution

01

Given data

  • The mass is,m1=26kg.
  • The distance from the hinge is,r1=1.60m.
  • The mass of the other is, m2=32kg.
  • The distance of the other from the hinge is,r2=1.30m.
02

Introduction of force

When the system is in equilibrium, the net force acting on a body will be equal to zero. In other words, the forces will balance each other, and the system will remain in equilibrium as long as no external disturbance is there.

03

Calculation of the force

The net torque is zero; we can write the equation as,

鈭�蟿=0FP脳r1-W2r1+r2=0Fp脳r1-m2gr1+r2=0

Here g is the gravitational acceleration.

Substitute the values in the above expression, and we get,

FP脳1.60=32脳9.8脳1.60+1.30FP=32脳9.8脳1.60+1.301.60FP=568N

Hence, the force isFP=568N.

Most popular questions from this chapter

Mechanics sometimes put a length of pipe over the handle of a wrench when trying to remove a very tight bolt. How does this help? (It is also hazardous since it can break the bolt.)

InFigure 9.21, the cg of the pole held by the pole vaulter is \(2.00\;{\rm{m}}\)from the left hand, and the hands are \(0.700\;{\rm{m}}\) apart. Calculate the force exerted by (a) his right hand and (b) his left hand. (c) If each hand supports half the weight of the pole inFigure 9.19, show that the second condition for equilibrium(net\(\tau = 0\))is satisfied for a pivot other than the one located at the center of gravity of the pole. Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy for static equilibrium described above.

Question: A device for exercising the upper leg muscle is shown inFigure, together with a schematic representation of an equivalent lever system. Calculate the force exerted by the upper leg muscle to lift the mass at a constant speed. Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem- Solving Strategy for static equilibrium inApplications of Statistics,Including Problem-Solving Strategies.

The upper leg muscle (quadriceps) exerts a force of\({\rm{1250 N}}\), which is carried by a tendon over the kneecap (the patella) at the angles shown inFigure\({\rm{9}}{\rm{.38}}\). Find the direction and magnitude of the force exerted by the kneecap on the upper leg bone (the femur).

Explain why the forces in our joints are several times larger than the forces we exert on the outside world with our limbs. Can these forces be even greater than muscle forces (see previous Question)?
