Three identical massless rods are each acted on by two ormoreforces, all perpendicular to the rods and all equal inmagnitude(with a force of magnitude F). None of these rods is instaticequilibrium. Now imagine that you can add an additional forceofmagnitude F on each rod. Which of the rods can be broughtintostatic equilibrium?

You have three parallel conducting rods. Two of them are verylong,and the third is 10.0 m long, with a weight of 36.0 N. Youwish toconduct the following levitation demonstration: The two longrodswill be placed in a fixed horizontal orientation at thesameheight, 10.0 cm apart. The third rod is to float above andmidwaybetween them, 10.0 cm from each one (from an end view, thethreerods will form the vertices of an equilateral triangle). Youwillarrange to pass the same current I through all three rods, inthesame direction through the two "supporting" rods and intheopposite direction through the "levitating" rod. What isthemagnitude I of the current that will maintain thisastoundingconfiguration?


I am trouble trying to figure out how to approach thisproblem.I know that Force = (mu*Current1*Current2*Length) /2*pi*R,

and Im supposed toequal the weight of the 3rd rod to magnitudeof the two bottom rodsto achieve the "levitating" concept, but Idon't know how to putthis into math terms. Please Help!!!

 A rod of length is hinged to a wall. A ropes attached to the end of the rod runs up to the wall at an angle of exactly , helping support the rod, while a sign of weight is hanging by two ropes attached to the bottom of the rod. The rods make an angles of exactly with the rod as shown in Figure P14.79. Another sign with a weight of is attached to the top of the rod with its center of mass at the midpoint of the rod. The entire system is in equilibrium. Find the magnitude of the tension in the rope above the rod that is also attached to the wall.

In Problem 79, find the magnitude of vertical and horizontal components of the force that the hinge must exert on the rod to keep the system in equilibrium.

Three particles A, B, and C each of mass m are connected to each other by three massless rigid rods to form a rigid, equilateral triangular body of side l. This body is placed on a horizontal frictionless table (x-y plane) and is hinged at point A so that it can move without friction about the vertical axis through A (see figure). The body is set into rotational motion on the table about this axis with a constant angular velocity . (a) Find the magnitude of the horizontal force exerted by the hinge on the body. (b) At time T, when side BC is parallel to the x-axis, force F is applied on B along with BC (as in the figure). Obtain the x-component and the y-component of the force exerted by the hinge on the body, immediately after time T.
