A beam is supported by two fulcrums and holds two masses, where m1= 50 g, m2 = 550 g, the length of the beam is 150 cm, and the beam's mass is 210 g. The right fulcrum is 30 cm from the right end of the beam. Can m2 be placed on the beam so that there is no normal force at O due to the fulcrum on the left ? If not, record zero for the value of x. If yes, record the value for x in centimeters.

The figure below shows two masses m1 =8.6 kg and m2 =2.8 kg on a frictionless...
The figure below shows two masses m1 =8.6 kg and m2 =2.8 kg on a frictionless surface. As shown, a force F1 =23.6 N pushes on m1 from the left and a force F2 = - 14.9 N pushes on m2 from the right. Find the force that m1 exerts on m2. (Hint, make use of Newton's third law and find the acceleration of the entire system first).
Two objects of masses m1 = 0.40 kg and m2 = 0.92 kg are placed on...
Two objects of masses m1 = 0.40 kg and m2 = 0.92 kg are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface and a compressed spring of force constant k = 290 N/m is placed between them as in figure (a). Neglect the mass of the spring. The spring is not attached to either object and is compressed a distance of 9.6 cm. If the objects are released from rest, find the final velocity of each object as shown in figure (b)....
Two isolated masses, M1 = 2.5 kg and M2 = 619.0 kg are initially at rest,...
Two isolated masses, M1 = 2.5 kg and M2 = 619.0 kg are initially at rest, a distance d= 146.0 cm apart. Their gravitational attraction is the only force acting. Calculate the time it takes for M1 to move from that distance to 144.0 cm from M2. Assume that M2 does not move and that the force is constant over that small distance, and equal to that at 145.0 cm. Find the speed of M1 when d = 144.0 cm....
Two blocks of masses m1 = 4.64 kg and m2 = 7.01 kg are placed on...
Two blocks of masses m1 = 4.64 kg and m2 = 7.01 kg are placed on a frictionless horizontal surface. A light spring is placed between the blocks and the blocks are pushed together with the spring between them and released. m1 kg moves to the right with a speed of 7.4 m/s. Determine the speed of the other mass. (Hint: Momentum is conserved!)
