We must place the pivot to keep the meter stick in balance at 90 cm (10 cm from the weight) from the free end.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
In initial stage, the meter stick’s mass and mass hanged in meter stick at one end are same. Refer figure 1, the mater stick’s weight acts at the stick’s mid-point.
If in case, the meter stick is to be at balanced form, then the acting torques sum would be zero. So,
Taking out ‘mg’ as common and we get
Hence, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of,
So, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of 75 cm at the free end
Now, replace mass with another mass. i.e., four times the initial mass (as given)
If in case, the meter stick is to be at balanced form, then the acting torques sum would be zero. So,
Taking out ‘mg’ as common and we get
Hence, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of,
So, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of 10 cm from the free end.
Therefore, the option B is correct 90 cm (10 cm from the weight).
Answer:
Explanation:
The strain is defined as the ratio of change of dimension of an object under a force:
where
is the change in length of the object
is the original length of the object
In this problem, we have and
, therefore the strain is
