    Finding the position where the electric field is zero

    This is the outline of the exercise I did on paper. So basically, my attempt to solve this involved writing the equations according to the reference frame I chose. The origin is the first charge. I began by putting the equations on paper: E = 0=> k*q*1/(x^2)+k*q*1/((x+d))^2 = 0, Note that 'x...

    Finding the center of mass of a simple 2D shape

    I don't understand How can I get the solution by calculating moment. How can I calculate a moment applied in this figure?

    Finding the center of mass of a simple 2D shape

    For the first two questions. Are you asking me relative to what referencial? If you are talking about the first referencial the x coordinate of the left edge is equal 7,5 and the right is equal to 15. If you are talking about the referencial in center of square but the y coordinate is in the...

    Finding the center of mass of a simple 2D shape

    Here it is the image of the statement: As I mentioned in the "relevant equations" section, my approach to solving this exercise involves calculating the difference between the centers of mass of the square and the triangle. Starting with calculation of center of mass for the square. Starting...

    Where Does a Bar on a Fulcrum First Tip When a Person Walks Across It?

    I think that explained all in "Relevant equations". Here is the image of this exercise: This is my Free Body Diagram:

    Finding the angle that a string makes with a wall and its tension

    I don't know why the image of the exercise doesn't appear. Here it is:

    Finding the angle that a string makes with a wall and its tension

    For a better understanding of this exercise here is the image illustrating the scenario described in the statement: So to solve this exercise I began by drawing a forces diagram: I believe I have explained everything in the "Relevant equations" section. What am I doing wrong? The book that...

    Basics of forces/torques and fulcrum

    I think I do. Basically I drew a cube after that I put the force of weight in center of mass, the force of the ballon above cube and a force in fulcrum pointing up. I think what I'm doing wrong is the cross product because in the equation of torques the unic variable is the position and position...

    Basics of forces/torques and fulcrum

    TL;DR Summary: When a cube is supported at the fulcrum and remains stationary due to a balloon exerting a force in the opposite direction of its weight. So the exercise is as follows: We have a homogeneous cube with an edge length of 2 meters, weighing 98N. On the other hand, we have a balloon...
