Question

An unbalanced baton consists of a 50-cm-long uniform rod of mass 200 g200 \mathrm{~g}. At one end there is a 10 -cm-diameter uniform solid sphere of mass 500 g500 \mathrm{~g}, and at the other end there is a 8.0cm8.0-\mathrm{cm}- diameter uniform solid sphere of mass 750 g750 \mathrm{~g}. (The center-to-center distance between the spheres is 59 cm59 \mathrm{~cm}.)

(c)(c) What is the net external force on the baton while in the air?

In this task we have to calculate net external force on the baton if known information are:

m1=500 gm2=200 gm3=750 g\begin{align*} m_1&=500 \text{ g}\\ m_2&=200 \text{ g}\\ m_3&=750 \text{ g}\\ \end{align*}

First, we have to define net external force.
