As shown below, on Titan a beam of length L is leaning against a frictionless wall and is in static equilibrium. The center of mass of the beam is located 0.9 L from the lower end of the beam and the beam is exerting a force of 46 N on the wall. Determine the mass of the beam and the minimum coefficient of static friction between the floor and the beam. mass of the beam = μs, min =

As shown in the figure below, a uniform beam is supported by a cable at one end and the force of friction at the other end. The cable makes an angle of θ = 30∘, the length of the beam is L = 4.00 m, the coefficient of static friction between the wall and the beam is μs = 0.580, and the weight of the beam is represented by w. Determine the minimum distance x from point A at which an additional weight 2w (twice the weight of the rod) can be hung without causing the rod to slip at point A. x = m

X = 0 A person with mass m1 = 52 kg stands at the left end of a uniform beam with mass m2 = 105 kg and a length L = 3.3 m. Another person with mass m3 = 59 kg stands on the far right end of the beam and holds a medicine ball with mass m4 = 9 kg (assume that the medicine ball is at the far right end of the beam as well). Let the origin of our coordinate system be the left end of the original position of the beam as shown in the drawing. Assume there is no friction between the beam and floor. What is the location of the center of mass of the system? m Submit Help The medicine ball is throw to the left end of the beam (and caught). What is the location of the center of mass now? m Submit Help What is the new x-position of the person at the left end of the beam? (How far did the beam move when the ball was throw from person to person?) m Submit Help To return the medicine ball to the other person, both people walk to the center of the beam. At what x-position do they end up? m Submit Help

A uniform ladder of mass mL = 12.3 kg and length L = 3.80 m is leaned against a frictionless wall at an angle of θ = 23.4∘, as shown in Figure 2. A human, of mass mh = 83.8 kg, stands a distance d = 1.10 m up the ladder as shown. What is the minimum coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the ground that will prevent the ladder from slipping?
