Study Notes

Forces and Torque

  • A uniform density stick is attached to a pivot at the right end, with equally spaced marks along its length.
  • Four forces (F₁, F₂, F₃, and F₄) can be exerted on the stick.

Angular Momentum

  • The angular momentum of the stick is being asked, with four options: 150 kg-m²/s, 450 kg-m²/s, 650 kg-m²/s, and 750 kg-m²/s.

Forces and Angular Velocity

  • Two of the four forces can be exerted on the stick, affecting its angular velocity.
  • Predictions about the change in angular velocity of the stick per unit of time:
    • F₁ and F₂: greatest change in angular velocity per unit of time.
    • F₁ and F₃: no change in angular velocity per unit of time.
    • F₂ and F₃: change in angular velocity per unit of time, but rate not specified.
    • F₃ and F₄: smallest change in angular velocity per unit of time.

Torque and Angular Velocity Change

  • When a single force is exerted on the stick, the rate of change of its angular velocity varies.
  • The force that changes the angular velocity of the stick at the smallest rate is being asked.
