One end of a uniform meter stick is placed against a vertical wall (given figure). The other end is held by a lightweight cord that makes an angle with the stick. The coefficient of static friction between the end of the meter stick and the wall is 0.40 . (a) What is the maximum value the angle can have if the stick is to remain in equilibrium? (b) Let the angle be 15. A of the same weight as the meter stick is suspended from the stick, as shown, at a distance from the wall. What is the minimum value of for which the stick will remain in equilibrium? (c) When =15, how large must the coefficient of static friction be so that the block can be attachedfrom the left end of the stick without causing it to slip?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The maximum value of can have if the stick is to remain in equilibrium is 21.80 .
  2. The minimum value of for which the stick will remain in equilibrium is 0.3023m.
  3. The coefficient of static friction bes0.6252

Step by step solution

01

Second condition of equilibrium

Which says that Net external torque around any location on the body must be zero for it to stay nonrotating.

=0(1)

Whereis net external torque.

02

Identification of given data

Here we have given that, the length of the meter stick L = 1 m

The coefficient of static friction between the end of the meter stick and the wall is s=0.40

Let N is the normal force from the wall on the meter stick

Fsis static friction from the wall on the meter stick.

W is the weight of the meter stick at its center of gravity

T is tension from the cord on the meter stick.

03

Finding the maximum value the angle θ can have if the stick is to remain in equilibrium

(a)

Let the system is in equilibrium.

W = 0

So, from equation (1),

c=(0)T+(0)N+L2WLFs=0Fs=W2

Also,

B=(0)T+(0)FsL2W+(tan)N=0

From equations (2) and (3),

Fs=狈迟补苍胃

Now, From the figure,

NtansNtanstan1stan1(0.40)21.80

So, the maximum value of can have if the stick is to remain in equilibrium is21.80

04

Finding the minimum value of  for which the stick will remain in equilibrium(b)

Suppose

So, from equation (1),

c=(0)T+(0)N+L2WLFs+(Lx)W=032LWxW=LFs32WxLW=FsW=Fs32xL

Also,

B=(0)T+(0)FsL2W+(Ltan)NxW=0L2+xW=(Ltan)NW=NLtanL2+x

Now, from equations (4) and (5),

Fs32xL=NLtanL2+xFs=NLtan32xLL2+x

We know that FssN.

So, the above equation becomes

NLtan32xLL2+xsN32Ltanxtan12sL+sx32Ltan12sLxtan+sxL23tansxtan+sx1.00m23tanstan+s

Now, we have =15,s=0.40,

Substitute these values in the above equation,

x1.00m23tan150.40tan15+0.40x0.3023m

Hence, the minimum value of x for which the stick will remain in equilibrium is 0.3023 m

05

Finding the coefficient of static friction so that the block can be attached   from the left end of the stick without causing it to slip.(c)

Here we have,=15,x=0.10mandL=1.00m, and

Now, from step (4), we have

NItan32xLL2+xsNsLtan32xLL2+xs(1.00m)tan15320.10m1.00m1.00m2+0.10ms0.6252

Hence, the coefficient of static friction be s0.6252.

The following conversions occur frequently in physics and are very useful. (a) Use 1 mi = 5280 ft and 1 h = 3600 s to convert 60 mph to units of ft/s. (b) The acceleration of a freely falling object is 32 ft/s2. Use 1 ft = 30.48 cm to express this acceleration in units of m/s2. (c) The density of water is 1.0 g/cm3. Convert this density to units of kg/m3.
