Get started for freeA uniform, solid cube of mass \(m\) and side \(s\) is in stable equilibrium when sitting on a level tabletop. How much energy is required to bring it to an unstable equilibrium where it's resting on its corner?
Give an example of an object on which the net torque about the center of gravity is zero, but that isn't in static equilibrium.
If you secure the boom at a fixed angle and lower the sampling apparatus at constant speed, the boom rope tension will a. increase. b. decrease. c. remain the same. d. increase only if the sampling apparatus is more massive than the boom.
A 4.2 -m-long beam is supported by a cable at its center. A \(65-\mathrm{kg}\) steelworker stands at one end of the beam. Where should a \(190-\mathrm{kg}\) bucket of concrete be suspended for the beam to be in static equilibrium?
When you carry a bucket of water with one hand, you instinctively extend your opposite arm. Why?
