Equilibrium Equilibrium Accel = 0 Static Equilibrium Accel = 0 AND velocity=0 Stationary What happens? What happens? If Forces applied at different points, can get a twist
'Twists' Hold and push down or up at different places What happens if let go of 'hold'? Hold Hold 'Twist' depends on force and position force applied If applying torque and object in equilibrium, must be another torque somewhere
Torque Simple Situation r F Axis If the force is perpendicular to the object to which the force is applied: τ = F r where r is the distance from the 'axis of rotation So need to choose an axis of rotation before calculating torque τ (greek lowercase tau) is the torque Units: N*m (enter them this way into computer) For static problems, axis of rotation can be anywhere

Two Different Approaches Find lever arm through trig Look at Components of force r θ F θ F θ F d d, r τ = F r τ = F (d cos θ) τ = F τ = F d τ = (F cosθ) d
