Hi everybody.
I have started with the M1 Mechanics Course this term and my teacher gave me some exam questions to do over the half term break but now I am stuck on one of the questions and I hope someone here will be able to help me.
So here is the question:
(read l as lamda and m as mue)...
Ok so can i simply ignore the horizontal force for the purpose of determining the moment ?
And what do you mean by drawing line of horizontal force ?
Is the distance not the 0.24m ?
Ok I think i have got it now:
Resultant moment about O = Sqrt(F1^2 + F2^2).
F1 = 5.0N * 0.24m = 1.2Nm , F2 = 5.0N * 0.24m = 1.2Nm
is that correct ?
I am sorry if my questions are dumb but we just started momets 2 lessons ago and we have got half term no so I can ot ask my teacher...
Hi and thanks for helping Doc Al!
I i extended the line but unfortunatly that does not help me.
unless the answer is that it is 2x 0.24 (0.48) ?
This question comes from a past paper and is worth 3 marks so i don't tihink that the answer is that easy.
could you try explaiing your...
Hello!
I have started with AS level physics this school year and our teacher has set us some prep over half term and there is one question on there that I do not understand.
I have attached the question to this post.
The problem with this question is that it is the first question he ever set...
