    In this first of the seven part series I will show you how to find the tension of a cable attached to a wall and rod with a mass hanging at the end of the rod.

    Hi Michael, been taking physics since grade 11 (I'm 25 now and am in first year engineering, sad I know) and for the first time I actually am feeling like I got what it takes to get good at this. I try to do these problems by myself before watching through and thanks to your excellent teaching methods I am finding at least half of the time I am on the right track... much better than before!

      Don't worry about the "late" start on your engineering studies. (I didn't complete my bachelor degree until I was 27 years old, before I started graduate school). Life happens and we have to live it as it comes. We are glad the videos are helpful.

      @@MichelvanBiezen yeah I wound up working trades for five-ish years before I decided I wanted to be an engineer, I didn't try my best in high school so I had to upgrade practically all my grade 12 credits to even qualify. But now that I'm here I don't wanna give up! Happy to report that I did pass my Physics Mechanics course, I imagine you're a big part of that! So thank you for your encouragement, here's hoping Waves and Fields will go well.

    To find the horizontal force on the hinge, you must sum all the forces in the x-direction.
    Therefore
    Fx = T cos (30 degrees)
    To find the vertical force at the hinge, you must use the sum of the torques with the pivot point at the right end of the horizontal beam.

    What if the beam is not level and the big force is actually on a ramp connected to the end of the beam?
    I have a bus with a foldimg rear door(5ft.) that is part of the ramp. The ramp extends another 7 ft to the ground. The pivot is 40" high. The door would need to be lowered to 25" to make the ramp accessible to the car, then lifted once the car is pulled into the ramp to straighten the door and ramp combination.

    First of all: thank you. But I have to point out Two important things.
    The teacher drew (min. 0:50) the pivot...well. But he explained us that putting this pivot he eliminates the two unknown forces (reactions X and Y). Sorry it only eliminates another torque. The reactions stay or remain. Please just note that this force doesn't (or pair of forces Rx and Ry don't) produce moment or torque because its line of action passes through the fulcrum or pivot axis. . . Sorry about my English.

      There are x and y forces where the post in embedded in the ground, but those forces would not add torque, since the distance from the point of rotation are considered "zero".

    Great video, but shouldn't that should be Sin 60 or Cos 30, not sin 30? L/d3 = sin 60 and L/d3 = Cos 30, so T = 1697.4 N

    • @MichelvanBiezen

      It is probably a little confusing, but the angle theta = 30 degrees and therefore d3 = L sin(theta) = L sin(30).

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      When calculating the magnitude of the torque, it doesn't matter what sign you use. However if you calculate the torque as a vector, then counter-clockwise is positive.

      By definition, d3 is the perpendicular distance from the line of action of the tension to the point of rotation (pivot point). It is drawn correctly.

    Hello Michel,
    I have put the figures in and i didn't get what you got. I got 2452.5N I didnt get 2940N. What am I doing wrong?
    Thank you

    Is it not Tcos(theta) since that would be the perpendicular force exerted.

      It depends on the angle used. In this example, since we are using theta, we must use the sin,

    Dear,
    why the center of mass of rod is at its center? We also have mass at right side thus CM shall be to the right...

      Each mass is taken separately. Thus the center of mass of the beam is at the center.

    i will be wrong if i resolve the components of tension and then calculate torque of them but we that the x component will be zero?

    There is no horizontal force acting, that's why he didn't use cos ø

    Thank you very much.Your videos helped me a lot. :)

    Tension is on the wrong place. its supposed to be on the other end so that it counteracts the two forces that act downwards.

    I love all your videos, but can you tell me why "d3" was really necessary? Isn't everything just acting at the full radial length or at half the radial length? I understand the need for the angle (sin 30), but couldn't all the torques just be set up quicker/easier as +mgr +MGr/2 and -Trsinϴ from the FBD without d3 since the cable provides torque at the full radial distance anyway?

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, you can do it that way. The use of d1, d2, and d3 is to make it easier to initially get the concept and set up the initial equation correctly.

    I'm sorry. Great explaination, but it the direction of the Torques would matter. Because when I did it the textbook way. You get 980 N in the end.
