- A balance has a 5.0kg object at 0.5m from the fulcrum, and a 20.0kg object a certain ways in the opposite direction from the fulcrum. Where would the 20.0kg object need to be for the system to be balanced? Suppose you placed the 20.0kg object at 0.5m away from the fulcrum in the opposite direction of the 5.0kg object. This would result in an unbalanced system. Where could you then place a 10kg object to rebalance the system?arrow_forwardThe crew on peg leg Petes' ship have mutinied. Now Pete finds himself walking the plank. The plank is 4.5m long and has a mass of 13kg. 3.6 meters of the plank extend out over the waters. The plank pivots on a small rail at the edge of the ship, this is the only point of the plank in direct contact with the ship. The remaining meter of the plank is held in place over the deck by the metal bar. The bar is .6m from the pivot. If Pete has a mass of 111kg, what is the torque provided by the bar when Pete is at the end of the plank?arrow_forwardCalculate the shear force acting on the lumbar vertebra. calculate the compressive force acting on the lumbar vertebra The GRF is 225 N.
