Physics Problem: Equilibrium for a Penguin on a Plank
Offered By: Dot Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Solve a challenging physics problem involving equilibrium and tension in this 14-minute video. Learn how to calculate the maximum distance a penguin can walk on a plank before a supporting wire breaks. Apply concepts of mass, force, and angles to analyze a system consisting of a penguin, a horizontal board, and a wire attached at an angle. Gain practical experience in problem-solving techniques for introductory algebra-based physics, based on the free OpenStax College Physics textbook. Enhance your understanding of equilibrium, tension, and force analysis through this engaging real-world scenario.
