HANGING BALL

A horizontal rod of length 429 cm is held aloft by friction against a brick wall on one end and on the other end by a rope of length 584 cm, which itself is attached to the brick wall directly above where the rod touches the wall. The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the rod is 0.458. A ball of the same weight as the rod hangs from the rod.

(a) What is the minimum distance ball must hang from the wall in order to the rod to stay stable?

A bar of length L and uniform density is held horizontally against a wall by a pivot at one end and a rope of tension T which pulls up and to the left making an angle \theta with the vertical wall. The rope is attached to the bar at a distance l = \frac{1}{3} L from the wall. A mass M is resting at the end of the bar.If the bar has total mass 2.6kg, the mass M=2.6kg, and the...
