... I suggest not making a big deal about the unfamiliar unit of force—the newton. I simply state that it is the unit of force used by physicists, and if students find themselves uncomfortable with it, simply think of “pounds” in its place. Relative magnitudes, rather than actual magnitudes, are the emp ...

... 1) The plank is set up as shown and the balance zeroed. When the student lies on the plank the reading is 600 N. The balance is 2 m from the student’s feet and the centre of gravity of the student is 1.5 m from their feet. What is the student’s weight? Taking moments about the feet. 600 x 2 = W x 1 ...

... Two boxes are connected by a lightweight (massless!) cord & are resting on a smooth (frictionless!) table. The masses are mA = 10 kg & mB = 12 kg. A horizontal force FP = 40 N is applied to mA. Calculate: a. The acceleration of the boxes. b. The tension in the cord connecting the ...
