A T-shaped board of uniform mass density has two small holes as shown. Initially, the pivot is placedthrough the right hole, which corresponds to the center of mass of the board. The board ¡s then held in place.

What does your answer imply about the ne, torque about the pivot? Explain.
b. Describe the acceleration of the center of mass of the board. Explain how you can tell.
What does your answer imply about the net force acting on the board? Explain.
3. Explain how your answers about net torque and net force in question 2 would change, if at all, if there is appreciable friction between the board and the pivot and the board remains at rest.
(1)
To Predict: The motion of the board.
Answer to Problem 1aT
The board will perform a circular repetitive motion.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Gravitational force is acting downward on the edge of the handle.
Formula used:
Calculation:
Conclusion:
The gravitational force at the edge of the handle leads to produce torque using equation in formula. r is the distance between the edge of the handle and the pivot around which the board will rotate. Angle between r and force is 90 degree.
(2)
To Describe: The angular acceleration of the board, acceleration of the center of mass and the net torque about the pivot.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Formula used:
Where, I is the moment of inertia and
Calculation:
From part 1, the net torque is
From the rotational equation of motion:
On comparing both the equations:
The center of mass of the board lies on the axis of rotation, therefore, the acceleration of the center of mass is zero.
The net torque is
Conclusion:
Hence, the angular acceleration is
(3)
The effect of friction on the torque and force.
Answer to Problem 1aT
The net torque and force will be reduced due to friction in effect.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Gravitational force is acting downward on the edge of the handle.
Formula used:
Calculation:
Conclusion:
The frictional force acts opposite to the motion of the object. Hence, net force and torque are reduced which eventually reduces the angular acceleration and linear acceleration.
