Check-in #9: Tipping
Today, we'll talk about tipping problems from Chapter 12 in the textbook. You'll learn how to determine if an object will tip. For tipping problems, you need to really THINK about the situation as you're drawing your free body diagram. You also need to think about the best choice of fulcrum. Finally, using line of action usually helps.
Required: Giancoli #38, Halliday #25+, 35, 41, 56 (not really a tipping problem)
For #25, also find the force required if the force is applied at the very top of the wheel.
Homework: Finish the Ladder Lab due in class Thursday. Study for QUIZ on static equilibrium & TIPPING problems Tuesday, October 11th.
Watch the following video which has to do with tipping. The red crosshairs on the box represent the object's center of mass. Notice that the box tips when the center of mass goes past the the support base. How can use geometry to find the incline angle at which the box will tip based on the location of the center of mass?
