Question

A uniform rod A B is suspended from a point X , at a variable distance from x from A , as shown. To make the rod horizontal, a mass m is suspended from its end A . A set of (m, x) values is recorded. The appropriate variable that give a straight line, when plotted, are:

Quantrex Academy · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A. m, 1 x

Balancing torque w.r.t. point of suspension aligned &m g x=M g ( 2 -x ) & m x=M 2 -M x &m= (M 2 ) 1 x -M aligned y= 1 x -C Straight line equation.
