If a street light of mass $M$ is suspended from the end of a uniform rod of length $L$ in different possible patterns as shown in the figure,then

Shown in the figure is a rigid and uniform one-meter-long rod $AB$ held in a horizontal position by two strings tied to its ends and attached to the ceiling. The rod has a mass $m$ and another weight of mass $2m$ is hung at a distance of $75\, cm$ from $A$. The tension in the string at $A$ is $....mg$.

Persons $A$ and $B$ are standing on the opposite sides of a $3.5 \,m$ wide water stream which they wish to cross. Each one of them has a rigid wooden plank whose mass can be neglected. However,each plank is only slightly longer than $3 \,m$. So,they decide to arrange them together as shown in the figure. With $B$ (mass $17 \,kg$) standing on one end of the plank,the maximum mass of $A$,who can walk over the plank is close to ............ $kg$.

$A$ small ball of mass $m$ is suspended from the ceiling by a string of length $L$. The ball moves along a horizontal circle with constant angular velocity $\omega$, as shown in the figure. The torque about the centre $(O)$ of the horizontal circle is

If torque is calculated relative to a reference point and this point is displaced,does the condition for rotation remain valid?

$A$ horizontal force $F$ is applied to a block as shown in the figure such that the block remains in a state of rest. Which of the following statements is true?
