Explanation:
part A.
m1g×d1 - m2×g×d2 = 0
m1×d1 - m2×d2 = 0
m1×d1 = m2×d2
(m1×d1)/d2 = m2'
part B
same thing just d2× cos(?) so,
(m1×d1)/(d2 ×cos(?)) = m2
A) The value of m2 using equilibrium of torques when the string is vertical is; m2 = (m1 × d1)/d2
B) The value of m2 using equilibrium of torques the actual setup with the string at an angle θ to the vertical is; m2 = (m1 × d1)/(d2 cos θ)
We are given;
First mass; m1
Distance of first mass to the right of the center; d1 cm
Second mass; m2
Distance of bar from the right of the center that passes through a pulley; d2 cm
A) Now, we are told that the string is perpendicular to the bar. Thus, taking equilibrium of torques, we have;
m1 * g * d1 = m2 * g * d2
g will cancel out to get;
m1 * d1 = m2 * d2
We want to find m2. Thus;
m2 = (m1 × d1)/d2
B) Now we are told that the string is set up at an angle θ to the vertical. Using equilibrium of torques, we now have
m1 * g * d1 = m2 * g * d2 * cos θ
g will cancel out to get;
m1 * d1 = m2 * d2 * cos θ
Making m2 the subject gives;
m2 = (m1 × d1)/(d2 cos θ)
