Question:
In Figure suppose the length L of the uniform bar is 3.00 m and its weight is 200 N. Also, let the block's weight W = 300 N and the angle θ = 30.0?. The wire can withstand a maximum tension of 500 N.
(a) What is the maximum possible distance x before the wire breaks? With the block placed at this maximum x, what are the

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
