A plank of length L=2.200 m and mass M=4.00 kg is suspended horizontally by a thin cable at one end and to a pivot on a wall at

the other end as shown. The cable is attached at a height H=1.70 m above the pivot and the plank's CM is located a distance d=0.700 m from the pivot.
Calculate the tension in the cable.

The tension in the cable is 23.2 N

<h3>What is the tension in the string?</h3>

The tension in the cable can be resolved into horizontal and vertical forces Tcosθ and Tsinθ respectively.

Tcosθ, is acting perpendicularly, Tcosθ = 0

Taking moments about the pivot:

Tsinθ * 2.2 = 4 * 9.8 * 0.7

Solving for θ;

θ = tan⁻¹(1.4/2.2) = 32.5°

T = 27.44/(sin 32.5 * 2.2)

T = 23.2 N

In conclusion, the tension in the cable is determined by taking moments about the pivot.

In a certain region of space, a uniform electric field is in the x direction. A particle with negative charge is carried from x=20.0 cm to x=60.0cm.

<h3>Where is the electric potential, when the particle moved?</h3>

The charge field system's electric potential energy rose. The particle experiences an electric force that is directed against the x-axis. It is pushed uphill by an outside force, which raises the potential energy.

When a charge to be moved against an applied electric field, electric potential energy is needed. A charge must be moved through a stronger electric field with more energy than it would require to carry it via a weaker electric field.

In a certain region of space, a uniform electric field is in the x direction. A particle with negative charge is carried from x=20.0 cm to x=60.0cm.

The electric potential energy of the charge field system:

  • (a) increase
  • (b) remain constant
  • (c) decrease
  • (d) change unpredictably

The correct option is a).
