3.11 Equilibrium

Determine the mass of the load to be lifted.

Determine the mass of the yellow metal bar.

There is a wire wrapped around a metal bar in the video. Determine the coefficient of static friction between the wire and the metal bar.

Demonstrate the validity of the laws of statics by comparing the measurement results with the values obtained by calculation.

Show according to the rules of the laws of statics, that the system is in balance with respect to forces.

Show by calculation that the torque balance is valid (rotational analog of Newton´s second law for a rigid body).

Determine the minimum buckling force theoretically and experimentally to a rod that is supported in four different ways. Compare the results obtained with each other. Also draw theoretical buckling images and compare them to the buckling seen in the video.
