knife edge at the 32 cm mark
. when a 120 g mass is hung at the 16 cm?
1m = 100cm
Let: R = reaction force @ the knife support
W = weight of the meter stick
Sum of moments @ 0cm mark is equal to 0, assume clockwise rotation
is positive:
(120 g)(16 cm) - R(32 cm) + W(50 cm) = 0
120 * (32 -16) = W * (50 - 32)
-> W = 120 * 16 / 20 = 96 gram

A uniform ruler of 1-m length is supported using a knife-edge clamp at 20-cm mark. The ruler is balanced by hanging a 320-g weight at 5-cm mark along the ruler. What is the mass of the ruler? What the torque on the ruler due to the normal force from the clamp?
A uniform meter stick (a ruler 100 cm long) is supported by a fulcrum at its 20 cm mark balances when a 200 g mass is suspended at the 0 cm end. Assume that the center of mass of the meter stick is exactly at its middle, the 50 cm mark. Determine the mass of the meter stick, in grams. Please show your work.
