Question
Experiment Torque : By means of diagram, show and explain how the two (2) conditions of equilibrium are applied on Procedure #4 setup.
to the same external forces that act on the object.
The algebraic sign of a torque is perfectly arbitrary. For convenience, clockwise
torques are usually called positive and counterclockwise torques negative.
50 Gm
100 Cm
Procedures:
1. Set-up the apparatus and locate the center of gravity of the meter stick by adjusting
the point of suspension until the meter stick is in equilibrium. Record this position as
the center of gravity of the meter stick.
1Ocm

2. At the 10 cm mark of the meter stick, hang a 40 g mass. If using a holder or hanger,
be sure to include its mass to the given load. Locate the position at which an 80 g be
hung to produce rotational equilibrium.
40g
B0g
3. After equilibrium has been attained, convert the masses into force equivalents and the
lever arms into meter. Record all torque producing forces and their respective lever
arms (moment arms). Identify each torque as clockwise or counterclockwise.
10Lm
4. Attach two weights on thhe meter stick: at 10 cm mark, hang a 20 g mass and at 20 cm
mark, 10 g mass. Balance their moments by a 60 g mass hung on the other side of the
fulcrum. Repeat procedure 3 and compute the percentage deviation.
10g
5. Slide the point of suspension of the meter stick as far as possible toward the zero end
of the meter stick. Record this position as the axis of rotation. With a loop of thread
and a spring balance, apply a force near the 100 cm end of the meter stick so that
equilibrium is produced. Record the force exerted by the spring balance and the
moment arm. From the law of moments, calculate the weight of the meter stick.
Then weigh the meter stick on the triple beam balance and record the relative
deviation between the values.
