Find the stable equilibrium position of the system described in Prob. 10.56 if m = 2.06 kg.
A 30kg mass is tied to a uniform rod whose mass and length are 80-kg and 8-m, as shown below. The rod is attached to the floor via a hinge and makes an angle of 70° relative to the ground; a massless string is also attached to the rod at the ¼ point of the rod and makes an angle of 20° relative to the horizontal. What tension must be provided by the rope so that the system remains in stationary? If at some point the string breaks, what will be the angular acceleration of the system the instant that the string breaks?
A spring is such that a 5 -lb weight stretches it 6 in. The 5 -lb weight is attached, the spring reaches equilibrium, then the weight is pulled down 3 in. below the equilibrium point and started off with an upward velocity of 6ft/sec. Find an equation giving the position of the weight at all subsequent times
A 20-lb weight is suspended from the end of a vertical spring having a spring constant of 40 Ib/ft and is allowed to reach equilibrium.

The sawhorse is a distance d= 1/5l from the right edge of the board. There is a block with mass ms= 4.5kg that is a distance 3/4l from the right edge of the board.
