NASA's Ames Research Center has a large centrifuge used for astronaut training. The centrifuge consists of a 3880-kg, 18.0-m-lon

g tubular structure, which rotates about its center. Find the centrifuge's rotational inertia when two 105-kg seats are mounted at either end of the tube, 7.92 m from the rotation axis, and both are occupied by 72.6-kg astronauts. Treat the tube as a thin rod and the astronauts and seats as point masses.

A force F acts at one corner of a thin, square metal plate. The force acts in the same plane as the plate. Which dashed line rep
Delvig [45]

The image of the thin square metal plate showing the force and the lines are missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

Line B represents the lever arm

Explanation:

From the attached image, we can see 4 different dashed lines between the force F and the moment centroid O.

Now, we want to know which of the dashed lines represents lever arm.

Now, in physics/engineering, the lever arm which is also known as moment arm is defined as the perpendicular distance between the line of action of the acting force and the centre of the moments.

Now, from the image attached, the only dashed line that is perpendicular to the acting Force F and the moment centre O is Line B.

Thus,line B represents the lever arm
