For what value of x, the point P on the ...

For what value of `x`, the point `P` on the rod of length `l = 6 m` has zero acceleration if a force `F` is applied at the end of rod as shown.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`a=F/m`

`alpha=tau/I=(Fl/2)/(ml^(2)//12)=(6F)/(ml)`
`a_(P)=a-ax=0`
`implies f/m-(6F)/(ml)=x=0impliesx=l/6=1m`
