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 body is said to be in static equilibrium if the net force acting on a body at rest is zero.As the net force is zero,the body will not undergo motion.
