A uniform slender L-shaped bar ABC is at rest on a horizontal surface when a force P
Question:
A uniform slender L-shaped bar ABC is at rest on a horizontal surface when a force P of magnitude 4 N is applied at point A. Neglecting friction between the bar and the surface and knowing that the mass of the bar is 2 kg, determine
(a) The initial angular acceleration of the bar,
(b) The initial acceleration of point B.

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.
