A woman uses a lever to lift a heavy box. The weight of the box is 60 N and lies 1 m from the fulcrum. The woman can exert at most 15 N of force. How far from the fulcrum must the woman apply the force?
Solution) This problem is based on principle of moments
Clockwise moments = anticlockwise moments

Use the following property of levers: A lever will be in balance when the sum of the products of the forces on one side of a fulcrum and their respective distances from the fulcrum is equal to the sum of the products of the forces on the other side of the fulcrum and their respective distances from the fulcrum. A woman uses a 10-foot bar to lift a 245-pound stone. If she places another rock 3 feet from the stone...
Question 4 5 pts The following scenario shows a woman military pressing a lever that is supporting a man. The man's mass is 90 kg and he is located 2.1 meters away from the pivot point. Answer the following questions below Force of Woman 2.1 m a) What is the approximate moment (or torque) due to the weight of the man? b) The woman is capable of holding 60 kg above her head. If she pushes at an angle of...
Force diagram worksheet 1 Draw the scene. Circle the item that is being analyzed. Draw the FBD. Sum the moments and solve for the forces. Assume all beams are of even weight distribution, ie a 5 m beam that weighs 50 N weights 10N per meter. O 5. You are holding a rope that goes over a pulley and then wraps around pulleys per the diagram. Can you pull with enough force to lift the platform that you are standing...
Suppose the short arm on a lever is 0.2 m and the long arm is 2 m. How much weight can one lift with the application of 10 N of force?
PHYS 123:: Physics Illinois :: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Imagine you are in the lab rolling balls down the ramp and measuring their speed at the bottom Homew 1) Suppose you roll the same ball twice starting at the same height above the ground. In the first case the ramp is long and has a gentle slope, and in the second case the ramp is short and steep. In which case does it take the ball the longest time...
An elephant (weight 50000 N) sits on the large plate of a hydraulic lift with area 10 m^2. The small plate of the lift has an area of 0.01 m^2. How much force, applied to the small plate, is required to lift the elephant? If I move the small plate a distance of 1 m, how far does the elephant move?

Period Date Name 39 Solitary Seesaw Purpose To identify the forces, lever arms, and torques for a system in rotational 2 knife-edge lever clamps set of slotted masses 2 mass hangers fulcrum string or masking tape Gravity pulls on every part of an object. The average position of these pulls (the weight) is the center of gavity (CG) of the object. The sum of all these pulls is the weight of the object. The entire weight of the object is...
To develop muscle tone, a woman lifts a 4.50 kg weight held in her hand. She uses her biceps muscle to flex the lower arm through an angle of 60.0°. a) What is the angular acceleration (in rad/s2) if the weight is 24.0 cm from the elbow joint, her forearm has a moment of inertia of 0.250 kg · m2, and the net force she exerts is 500 N at an effective perpendicular lever arm of 2.20 cm? (Ignore gravity)...
