Step 1
- The pendulum consists of a rod and a solid sphere. - Mass of the rod (\(m_1\)) = 1 kg, length of the rod (\(L\)) = 1 m. - Mass of the sphere (\(m_2\)) = 0.5 kg, radius of the sphere = 0.3 m. Show more…

A pendulum consists of a rod of mass $1 \mathrm{kg}$ and length $1 \mathrm{m}$ connected to a pivot with a solid sphere attached at the other end with mass $0.5 \mathrm{kg}$ and radius $30 \mathrm{cm} .$ What is the torque about the pivot when the pendulum makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with respect to the vertical?
A small ball of mass 0.64 kg is attached to one end of a 0.840-m-long massless rod, and the other end of the rod is hung from a pivot. When the resulting pendulum is 26° from the vertical, what is the magnitude of the torque about the pivot?

SSM A small ball of mass 0.75 $\mathrm{kg}$ is altached to one end of a $1.25-\mathrm{m}$ -long massless rod, and the other end of the rod is hung from a pivot. When the resulting pendulum is $30^{\circ}$ from the vertical, what is the magnitude of the gravi- tational torque calculated about the pivot?
