What is the difference between the states of phase equilibrium and metastability?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

The main difference is that the metastable state is not a state of equilibrium, but a state of non-equilibrium that is maintained for a long time. A metastable state is when the system approaches equilibrium in a very slow manner.

And on the other hand the phase equilibrium as the name says is a state of equilibrium in which there are more than two phases coexisting.

A rod of length L is pivoted about its left end and has a force F applied perpendicular to the other end. The force F is now rem

timurjin [86]

Answer:

$F' = 4F$

Explanation:

When force applied to the end of the rod in perpendicular direction then net torque on the rod is given as

$\tau = L F sin90$

$\tau = LF$

Now another force is applied at mid point of the rod at an angle of 30 degree with the rod

so new value of torque is given as

$\tau = \frac{L}{2}F' sin\theta$

$LF = \frac{L}{2}F' sin30$

$LF = \frac{F'L}{4}$

so we have

$F' = 4F$
