प्रश्न
A non uniform beam of weight 120 N pivoted at one end is shown in the diagram below. Calculate the value of F to keep the beam in equilibrium.
उत्तर
To balance the beam with a weight of 120 N, force F is applied.
∴ Anticlockwise moment = Clockwise moment
W × distance to C.G. = F × distance to F
120 × 0.20 = F × 0.80
24 = 0.80 F
`F = 24/0.80 = 30 N`
The value of F required to keep the beam in equilibrium is 30 N.
