7. A student sets up a meter stick on a fulerum that is positioned at 50 cm as shown below. A 20
‘gram mass hangs 30 centimeters from the left end and a 50 gram mass hangs 5 cm from the left
end, What mass would have to be hung 15 em from the right end so that system is in rotational,
equilibrium? -

8. A massless 6.0 m rod is supported from a wall on a hinge. A 15 kg mass is hung 4.0 meters
from the wall, A student pulls on a rope attached to the end of the rod at an angle of 25° from
vertical with a force of 100, N, What is the tension in the rope that supports the rod, the rope is
attached at the midpoint of the rod? How would the tension change if the student pulled straight
down?
