The free body diagram of the bas is shown below:

The torque is given by:

\tau=r_{\perp}F

where F is the force and:

r_{\perp}

is the perpendicular distance between the rotation axis and the line of action of the force, which we called the moment arm. We know that the torque follows the principle of superposition then to find the total torque we need to add the torque each force exert. Before we do this we need to find the correct sign of the torque so we need to remember that if a force makes an object rotate counterclockwise then the torque is positive; otherwise it is negative. In this case Force two will exert a positive torque while the other two forces acting on the bar exert a negative torque.

For force one and the weight the moments arms are 5 m and 2.5 m, respectively. This comes from the fact that the forces are perpendicular to the rod.

For force two the moment arm is given as:

r_{\perp}=2\sin 30=1

Hence the total torque is given by:

\begin{gathered} \tau=F_2r_{\perp2}+Wr_{\perp w}+F_1r_{\perp1} \\ \tau=(150)(1)-(9.8)(2.2)(2.5)-(20)(5) \\ \tau=-3.9 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the total torque on the bar is -3.9 Nm (this means that the bar will rotate clockwise).

An object is moving in a circle. If the radius of the object is doubled, and the period remains constant, the magnitude of the v
Anton [14]

Answer:

Twice

Explanation:

From the formula for velocity in a circle

V= 2πr/T

Where V is velocity

r is raduis

T is period

We see that as r increases V increases so if r is doubled V becomes doubled

The sound from a single source can reach point O by two different paths. One path is 20.0 m long and the second path is 21.0 m l
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

minimum frequency = 170 Hz

Explanation:

given data

One path long = 20 m

second path long = 21 m

speed of sound = 340 m/s

solution

we get here destructive phase that is path difference of minimum \frac{\lambda}{2}

here  λ is the wavelength of the wave

so path difference will be

21 - 20 = \frac{\lambda}{2}  

λ = 2 m

and

velocity that is express as

velocity = frequency × wavelength    .............1

frequency  = \frac{340}{2}  

minimum frequency = 170 Hz

A camera is equipped with a lens with a focal length of 34 cm. When an object 2.4 m (240 cm) away is being photographed, what is
puteri [66]

Answer:

The magnification is -6.05.

Explanation:

Given that,

Focal length = 34 cm

Distance of the image =2.4 m = 240 cm

We need to calculate the distance of the object

\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}

Where, u = distance of the object

v = distance of the image

f = focal length

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{34}-\dfrac{1}{240}

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{103}{4080}

u =\dfrac{4080}{103}

The magnification is

m = \dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-240\times103}{4080}

m = -6.05

Hence, The magnification is -6.05.
