A horizontal uniform bar of mass 3 kg and length 3.0 m is hung horizontally on two vertical strings. String 1 is attached to the

end of the bar, and string 2 is attached a distance 0.6 m from the other end. A monkey of mass 1.5 kg walks from one end of the bar to the other. Find the tension T1 in string 1 at the moment that the monkey is halfway between the ends of the bar.

Answer:

T₁ = 2.8125 N

Explanation:

The equilibrium equation of the moments at the point where string 2 is located on the bar is like this:

∑M₂ = 0

M₂ = F*d

Where:

∑M₂  : Algebraic sum of moments in the the point (2) of the bar

M₂ : moment in the point 2 ( N*m)

F  : Force ( N)

d  : Horizontal distance of the force to the point 2 ( N*m

Data

mb = 3 kg : mass of the  bar

mm = 1.5 kg :  mass of the  monkey

L = 3m : lengt of the bar

g = 9.8 m/s²: acceleration due to gravity

Forces acting on the bar

T₁ : Tension in string 1 (vertical upward)

T₂ : Tension in string 2 (vertical upward)

Wb :Weihgt of the bar (vertical downward)

Wm: Weihgt of the monkey  (vertical downward)

Calculation of the weight of the bar (Wb) and of the monkey(Wm)

Wb = m*g = 3 kg*9.8 m/s² = 29.4 N

Wm = m*g = 1.5 kg*9.8 m/s² = 14.7 N

Calculation of the distances  from forces the point 2

d₁₂ = (3-0.6) m = 2.4m  : Distance from T1 to the point 2

db₂ = (3÷2) m = 1.5 m : Distance from Wb to the point 2

dm₂ = (3÷2) m = 1.5 m : Distance from Wm to the point 2

Equilibrium  of moments at the point  2 on the bar

∑M₂ = 0

T₁(d₁₂) - Wb(db₂) - Wm(dm₂) = 0

T₁(2.4) -3*(1.5) - 1.5*(1.5) = 0

T₁(2.4) =3*(1.5) + 1.5*(1.5)

T₁(2.4) =6.75

T₁ = 6.75 / (2.4)

T₁ = 2.8125 N

What are the condition required for reverberation?​
Luda [366]

Answer:

Reverberation is created when a sound produced in a sapce is reflected off surfaces, like walls, teh floor or the ceiling. ... The time it takes for this sound in the space to decrease in volume down to 60 decibels (practically silence) after the sound source is extinguished is its reverberation time.
