In the figure below right, horizontal scaffold 2, with uniform mass m
2
= 20.0 kg and length L
2
= 2.00
m, hangs from horizontal scaffold 1, with uniform mass m
1
= 40.0 kg. A 30.0 kg box of nails lies on
scaffold 2, centered at distance d = 0.500 m from the left end.
a) Draw all the forces exerted on the
lower
scaffold in the figure,
and write down the translational equilibrium condition (balance
of forces equation) and rotational equilibrium condition (balance
of torques equation) for the lower scaffold.
Four forces are exerted on the lower scaffold, the gravitational
force exerted at the center of the scaffold, two tension forces
exerted at the both ends and the force from the box, whose magnitude is equal to the gravitational
This is the end of the preview.
