2. A uniform meter scale supported at the 40 cm mark is in equilibrium when a 50g mass is suspended at the 10 cm mark of the scale. Find the mass of the scale.
here,
mass suspended , m1 = 50 g
let the mass of scale be m2
equating the torques about the hinge
m1 * g * (40 - 10) - m2 * g * ( 50 - 40) = 0
50 * 30 = m2 * 10
m2 = 150 g
the mass of scale is 150 g

A uniform meter stick is supported on a knife edge at the 32.0 cm mark. When a 125 g mass is hung at the 16.0 cm mark, the stick is balanced. What is the mass of the meter stick?
55) A 0.15-N meter stick is suspended from a spring scale at its 25-cm mark. When an object of unknown mass is hung from the meter stick on the 10-cm mark, the meter stick is in equilibrium. Draw an extended-body force diagram for the meter stick and (a) determine the mass of the object and (b) the reading on the spring scale.
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.
A 0.104 kg meter stick is supported at its 40 cm mark by a string attached to the ceiling. A 0.644 kg object hangs vertically from the 7.09 cm mark. A second mass is attached at another mark to keep it horizontal and in rotational and translational equilibrium. If the tension in the string attached to the ceiling is 17.4 N, find the value of the second mass. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in...
the fulcrum is positioned at the 50cm mark on the meter stick. A 50g mass is hung from 67 m mark on the stick. Also a 200g mass is suspended from the 89 cm mark. A. Calculate the total clockwise torque due to these masses B. assuming that the total counterclockwise torque is equal to the answer in (A) above, calculate the position on the meter stick where 315g mass must be suspended in order to balance the stick.
A uniform meter stick is balanced with the pivot located at the 60 cm mark. And a mass of 50 grams placed at the 85 cm mark. What is the mass of the meter stick?
A fulcrum is placed at the 40 cm mark on a 50 g meter stick (center of mass at the 50 cm mark). A 35 g mass is placed at the 10 cm mark. What mass would have to be placed at the 75 cm mark to balance the meter stick?
007 (part 1 of 2) 10.0 points A 0.091 kg meter stick is supported at its 40 cm mark by a string attached to the ceiling. A 0.568 kg object hangs vertically from the 5.75 cm mark. A second mass is attached at another mark to keep it horizontal and in rotational and translational equilibrium. If the tension in the string attached to the ceiling is 16.9 N, find the value of the sec- ond mass. The acceleration due to...
11. You use a uniform meter stick of 140 and put the pivot a 35 cm mark, TOW) g. mark. What mass you need at 10 cm mark to nel rotational equilibrium? 85 cm
4. The meter stick balances at the 49.7 cm mark when placed on the fulcrum, the center of gravity of the meter stick is located 49.7cm from the zero end. The free-body diagram of the stick when it is balanced with the 50.0-g mass attached at the 10.0cm mark is as given below. Find the mass of meter stick, M. AR Point O - 39.2 cm - 10.0 cm (50.0 g)? 49.7 cm 49.7 cm Me
