(a) Suppose a meter stick made of steel and one made of invar are the same length at 0°C. What is their difference in length at 45.0°C? The coefficient of thermal expansion is

12 ✕ 10⁻⁶/°C for steel and 0.9 ✕ 10⁻⁶/°C for invar.

(b) Repeat the calculation for two 38.5-m-long surveyor's tapes.

A) During a lab, a meter stick was used at static equilibrium (the net torque was stationary and non-rotating objects are zero) to determine the masses or unknown distances for objects suspended from the meter stick. The total forces exerted at each location along the meter stick were factored in to find the total mass of the slotted masses, the mass hanger, and the clip that was attached to the meter stick. The one mass that did not have to...

A meter stick on a horizontal frictionless table top is pivoted at the 80-cm mark. A force F1 = 5 N is applied perpendicularly to the end of the stick at 0 cm, as shown. A second force F2 (not shown) is applied at the 100-cm end of the stick. The stick does not rotate. a) What is the torque (magnitude and sign) about the pivot from F1? b) Explain why the torque from the pivot about itself is zero....
