A 5 meter long plank has a mass of 4 kg. It is supported by 2
supports, the
first at 1 meter from the end, and the second at 3 meters from that
same end.
How much upward force is supplied by the second support?
it is uniform plank so the centre of mass acts at the distance 2.5m .
let reaction at support 1 is x and support 2 is y.
(1) force balance;
so x+y - 4*10 = 0
x+y=40
(2)momentum balance;
balance at support 1
x*0 + y*2 - 40*1.5 =0
2y =60
y=30 N
so the reaction at second support = 30 N and at the first support = 40-30 =10 N
A uniform plank, 5 meters long, is supported by two equal 120 newton forces, each 1 meter from the ends. The support at the left end is then moved in by 0.5 meters. How is the weight of the plank divided between the left and right supports?
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...
2) A board with a mass of 6 kg, which is 5 meters long, rests on two supports. Support one is 0.11 meters to the right of the left side of the board and support two is some distance to the left of the right side of the board. The normal force from support 1 is 1/4 of the board's weight. If a force is applied 0.23 meters to the right of second support vertically downwards, how much force is...

1. A 4-meter plank weighing 8 kg is lying on a dock with 2.71 meters of its length on the dock, and the rest of its length extending off the dock. If a child weighing 61.2 kg walks out onto the part of the plank extending off the dock, what is the maximum distance in meters that the child can walk on the plank from the edge of the dock before he falls into the water? 2. A man pulls...
