To study torque experimentally, you apply a force to a beam. One end of the beam is attached to a pivot that allows the beam to rotate freely. The pivot is taken as the origin or your coordinate system. You apply a force of F = Fx i + Fy j + Fz k at a point r = rx i + ry j + rz k on the beam. Part a) Calculate the magnitude of the torque, in newton meters, when the components of the position and force vectors have the values rx = 3.71 m, ry = 0.075 m, rz = 0.085 m, Fx = 1.2 N, Fy = -7.6 N, Fz = 1.2 N. Part b) If the moment of inertia of the beam with respect to the pivot is I = 72 kg˙m^2, calculate the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the beam about the pivot, in radians per second squared.
EXERCISE HINTS: GETTING STARTED I'M STUCK! A man ties one end of a strong rope 7.68 m long to the bumper of his truck, 0.534 m from the ground, and the other end to a vertical tree trunk at a height of 3.86 m. He uses the truck to create a tension of 7.73 x 10 N in the rope. Compute the magnitude of the torque on the tree due to the tension in the rope, with the base of the tree acting as the reference point. N. m
A wrench is used to apply a torque to a bolt. Forces F1 through F6 all have the same magnitude. The point of application of force F1 (and F4) is a distance d from the center of rotation of the bolt. The application points of F1, F2, and F3 are all distance d apart, as shown. Use the convention that counter-clockwise torques are positive; clockwise torques are negative. Determine the torque applied on the bolt by F6 in terms of the variables and angles given in the problem.
