Part 9: Torque; Rotational Equilibrium

Learning Objectives

By the end of this chapter, you will be able to:

  1. Apply torque formula to solve rotational problems.
  2. Calculate net torque for systems in non-equilibrium situations.
  3. Use the second condition of equilibrium (rotational equilibrium) to solve problems with systems in equilibrium subjected to parallel forces.
