Suppose a crate of mass 3.0 kg is placed on the plank in the figure below at a distance x = 8.1 m from the left end. If the plank has a mass of 12 kg, find the forces exerted by the two supports on the plank (left support and right support).

Let the reaction forces be R an N
Force balance, 3g + 12g = R + N .. (1)
moment balance about left pivot, 3*(8.1-3) + 12(6 - 3) = N*7
N = 7.3285
and R = 15g - N = 139.671 N

A uniform plank that is 4.00 m long has a mass of 7.00 kg. The plank is supported by two sawhorses, one 3.56 m from the right end of the plank and the other 1.50 m from the right end of the plank. A cat of mass 2.63 kg is sitting on the plank at a distance of 1.75 m from the right end of the plank. (a) Draw a free body diagram showing the four forces acting ON the...
A horizontal 8 kg plank is 3.0 m in length and has its center of mass at the geometrical center. A 2 kg mass is placed 1.0 m from one end and the plank is supported from the ends. Calculate the forces of support Please explain! I keep getting the negatives and positives mixed up in calculations. Thank you!
Part II M1 = 40 kg M2- 32 kg The length of the plank is 3.0 m and it has a mass of 20.0 kg. How far from the left end of the planlk should the fulcrum (pivot point) be placed to for mechanical equilibrium? Assume that the plank's mass is uniformly distributed and that Mass M2 is 0.3 m from the right end of the plank. the right end of the plank. asured from the left end.
In
the system below, a board is supported by two supports. The 12.0 kg
mass is 1.0m from the the left end of the board, and the 20.0 kg
mass is 2.0m from the right end of the board. The mass of the board
is 15.0 kg and the length is 5.0 m. Find F1 and F2, the forces of
the support.
