A massless rod is attached to the ceiling by a string. Two weights are hung from the rod: a 0.4-lb weight at its left end and a

1.2-lb weight at its right end. The length of the rod is L and a string is attached (3L/4 from its left end) so that the rod (with attached weights) is horizontal. What is the tension in the string supporting the rod and the attached weights

The tension in the string supporting the rod and the attached weights is 7.11 N.

<h3>Tension in the string supporting the rod</h3>

The tension in the string supporting the rod and the attached weights is the sum of the weights supported by the strings.

T = (m1 + m2)g

where;

  • m1 and m2 are the two masses supported

0.4lb + 1.2lb = 1.6lb = 0.725 kg

T = 0.725 x 9.8

T = 7.11 N

Airida [17]

Answer:

735N

Explanation:

Weight is a measurement of force.

F = Force

m = mass

a = acceleration

F = m*a

F = 75kg*9.8m/s²

F = 735N
