Physics Aviary: Practice Problems: Static Equilibrium Level 2

Find the tension in two ropes when the ropes are pulling at unequal angles.

Find the tension in two ropes when one of the ropes is horizontal.

Find the tension in one rope that is holding a bar in equilibrium by pulling on an angle.

Find the tension in two ropes that are holding the system in static and rotational equilibrium.

Students must determine the unknown mass in a problem involving momentum conservation. One object begins at rest and the two objects stick together during the collision.

Students must determine the net torque on a wheel. There will be two forces on the wheel that will be apply at random angles to their radii.

Students must find the time it has been falling and the average speed it has been falling between to stories of a garish tower.

Students must predict the speed in a problem involving momentum conservation. One object overtakes the other and the two objects stick together during the collision.

Students must predict the speed in a problem involving momentum conservation. The two objects have a head-on collision and stick together during the collision.

Students must determine the unknown mass in a problem involving momentum conservation. Both objects begin at rest and are propelled apart by a tap activated spring.
