- A rod is being used as a lever as shown. The fulcrum is 1.20 m from the load and 2.40 m from the applied force. If the load has a mass of 14.4 kg, what force must be applied to lift the load?arrow_forwardA medical technician uses a pair of 0.125m long tweezers to remove a wood sliver from a patient. The technician is applying 5 N of squeezing force to the tweezers. If more than 1/5 lb of force is applied to the sliver, it will break and become difficult to remove. Assume the squeezing force is applied at 90 degrees to the tweezers.

- Jackson finds an old well with a rope, bucket, a shaft that spools the rope, and a large crank wheel that turns the shaft to bring up the bucket of water. The bucket and the water have a total mass of 10.33kg, the shaft has a diameter of 15cm, and the crank wheel has a radius of 0.625m. Ignoring the mass of the rope, use torque to find the tangential force on the crank wheel required to lift the bucket and the water at a constanst speed.arrow_forwardA bolt has a requirement of being tightened to 38Nm.

- A particular bolt needs to be tightened with a torque of 20 N m to ensure it does not come loose.

What weight should be placed 3.4 cm away from the fulcrum on the other side of the beam in order to balance of the system?arrow_forwardA seesaw is a flat board that is balanced on a fulcrum (point of balance). When the weight at either end is equal, the seesaw is balanced and both ends are at the same height. When weight is added to either side, the balance will tilt in that direction. To prevent the balance from tipping, the location of the fulcrum must be moved to accommodate the difference in weights placed on each end. A playground equipment company wants to produce a seesaw that will be perfectly balanced when an adult and a child are on either end. The company estimates that an adult, on average, weighs four times as much as a child. The length of the seesaw is 10 feet. C A { 01 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10arrow_forward
