Its far end is supported by a cable that makes an angle of = 53 with the beam. A person of weight Wp = 600 N stands a distance d = 2.00 m from the wall. Find the tension in the cable as well as the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by the wall on the beam.

Horizontal Beam Example, 2 • Analyze – Draw a free body diagram – Use the pivot in the problem (at the wall) as the pivot point • This will generally be easiest – Note there are three unknowns (T, R, q) Horizontal Beam Example, 3 • The forces can be resolved into components in the free body diagram • Apply the two conditions of equilibrium to obtain three equations • Solve for the unknowns Horizontal Beam Example, 3 l Choose pivot point about hinge near wall z (T sin )(l ) W p d Wb ( ) 0 2 l W p d Wb ( ) 2 (600 N )(2m) (200 N )(4m) 313N T l sin (8m) sin 53 Horizontal Beam Example, 3 l Choose pivot point about hinge near wall z (T sin )(l ) W p d Wb ( ) 0 2 l W p d Wb ( ) 2 (600 N )(2m) (200 N )(4m) 313N T l sin (8m) sin 53 Fx R cosq T cos 0 Fy R sin q T sin W p Wb 0 Horizontal Beam Example, 3 l Choose pivot point about hinge near wall z (T sin )(l ) W p d Wb ( ) 0 2 l W p d Wb ( ) 2 (600 N )(2m) (200 N )(4m) 313N T l sin (8m) sin 53 Fx R cosq T cos 0 Fy R sin q T sin W p Wb 0 W p Wb T sin R sin q tan q R cos q T cos W p Wb T sin 71.1 q tan T cos T cos (313 N ) cos 53 R 581N cos q cos 71.1 1 i-Clicker!

The mass of the ladder is m, and the coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the ground is s = 0.40. Find the minimum angle q at which the ladder does not slip. A Problem-Solving Strategy • Choose a convenient axis for calculating the net torque on the object – Remember the choice of the axis is arbitrary • Choose an origin that simplifies the calculations as much as possible – A force that acts along a line passing through the origin produces a zero torque • Be careful of sign with respect to rotational axis – I’ll choose positive if force tends to rotate object in CCW – negative if force tends to rotate object in CW – zero if force is on the rotational axis • Apply the second condition for equilibrium net , z ext , z 0 Choose an origin O that simplifies the calculations as much as possible ? • A uniform ladder of length l rests against a smooth, vertical wall.

It provides an alternative way to determine the torque and is especially useful when the forces do not lie along coordinate axes. lever arm=rsin Torque=F*r*sin Torque=F*lever arm Sometimes it is simple to read the lever arm right off of the diagram. Three forces of equal magnitude are applied to a 3-m by 2-m rectangle. Forces F1 and F2 act at 45° angles to the vertical as shown, while F3 acts horizontally.

Another ladder example A uniform ladder weighing 60 N leans against a frictionless vertical wall. What is the minimum coefficient of friction necessary between the ladder and the floor if the ladder is not to slip? 4m 3m Another ladder example Fwall(normal) A uniform ladder weighing 60 N leans against a frictionless vertical wall.

A uniform ladder weighing 60 N leans against a frictionless vertical wall. What is the minimum coefficient of friction necessary between the ladder and the floor if the ladder is not to slip? Ffloor(friction) Fwall(normal) Fearth(weight) 4m 3m Ffloor(normal) Annotated solution We are trying to find the coefficient We know the of friction, forces have to How is it related to what we know balance… SF=0 Fwall(normal) (the weight)? Ffloor(friction)=Ffloor(normal) Since SFvertical=0, by observation we can see that Ffloor(normal) Fearth(weight) 60 N Fearth(weight) 4m Since SFhorizontal=0, by observation we can see that Fwall(normal) Ffloor(friction) ?? Ffloor(friction) There are two unknowns and only one equation – we need another 3m equation. Ffloor(normal) Sz=0 … to the rescue! i-Clicker! In this case, what are the best choices for the axis of rotation? Fwall(normal) I. At the top of the ladder II. At the middle of the ladder III. At the bottom of the ladder A. B. C. D. E. I II III I or II II or III Fearth(weight) 4m Ffloor(friction) 3m Ffloor(normal) Annotated solution We are trying to find the coefficient of friction, How is the frictional torque related to the weight torque about the base? Ffloor(friction)=Ffloor(normal) and Ffloor(friction)=Fwall(normal) Since Sbase=0, then Fearth(weight)*(its lever arm) must balance with Fwall(normal) *(its lever arm) We know the torques about any axis have to balance… S=0 Fwall(normal) How do you find the lever arm? It is the shortest distance from the line of action of the force to the axis of rotation. The lever arm for the weight=1.5 m and the lever arm for the wall normal force is 4 m. Fearth(weight) 4m Ffloor(friction) O 3m Ffloor(normal) Putting it all together Sbase=0, so Fearth(weight)*(its lever arm) must balance with Fwall(normal) *(its lever arm) Putting it all together Sbase=0, so Fearth(weight)*(1.5m) = Fwall(normal)*(4 m) Fwall(normal) = Fearth(weight)*(1.5m)/(4 m) Ffloor(friction)=Fwall(normal) Fearth(weight)*0.375 Fwall(normal)/Ffloor(normal) Since in this case Fearth(weight) = Ffloor(normal) Fwall(normal)/Fearth(weight) = [Fearth(weight)*0.375] /Fearth(weight) = 0.375 How does this problem change if there is a person of known weight standing on the ladder at a known position?
