Why do tight rope walkers carry a pole?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The artist often carries a balancing pole that may be as long as 12 meters (39 feet) and weighs up to 14 kilograms (31 pounds). This pole increases the rotational inertia of the artist, which allows more time to move his or her center of mass back to the desired position directly over the wire. This effect can be magnified by making the pole as long as possible and by weighting its ends. The pole also helps balance the funambulist by lowering the center of gravity. High-wire artists use drooping, rather than rigid, balance poles. It's possible, in fact, to have such heavy weights attached to the ends of a long, drooping pole that the center of gravity of the performer/pole system is below the wire. In this case, the performer would require no more sense of balance than a person hanging from the wire. Check the related links for more info

If a trapeze artist rotates twice each second while sailing through the air and contracts to reduce her rotational inertia to three-fourths how many rotations per second will result?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, the only thing you really have to do is take how many times she rotates before the reduction in the distribution of mass and times it by the reciprocal of the fraction they give you. So, just take 2 times 4/3 and you get 2.67 rps.

How do you build a trapeze bar?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A standard trapeze bar (as used in the majority of flying trapeze acts) is a 3 feet wide and 1" diameter steel bar, usually solid which weighs 5kg (11 lbs) it is usually wrapped in either cotton tape (held in place by double sided tape) or in a coarse tape such as elastoplast. There is a ring welded onto each end of the bar to attach the (usually) 12'6" - 6mm steel cables to it for the swing. A standard trapeze rig is 42 feet long with 26' between catcher & flyer and 16' between flyer and pedistal. The pedistal and flying main bars (crane bars) are rigged at the same height. The catchers crane bar is generally rigged two feet lower. Add this to the fact that the catchers trapeze bar cables are generally around 8'6" long and you have enough space for the flyer to peform his / her tricks in.
