Answer:
the mass should be bring closer to the point about which we are finding torque
Explanation:
τ = Σr × F = rmg
where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and r is the distance
Torque is directly proportional to -
1.mass, m , of object
2. distance, r, of the mass from the point about which we are finding the torque.
So if we increase or decrease them then the torque will also increase or decrease.
So if we increase the mass the torque will increase but since we have to maintain same torque therefore we have to decrease the distance of mass from the point about which we are finding torque.
Therefore the mass should be bring closer to the point about which we are finding torque.
Below are the answers:
(a) Ep = mass x gravitational acceleration x height
<span>= 2kg x 9.8ms-2 x 3m </span>
<span>= 58.8J </span>
<span>(b) F = mg </span>
<span>= 2kg x 9.8ms-2 </span>
<span>= 19.6N </span>
<span>W = Fd </span>
<span>= 19.6N x 3m </span>
<span>= 58.8J
</span>
