A 3m long diving board weighing 50 N is supported at one end and at a pivot 1 m from the end. At the other end stands a diver weighing 100 N. What are the forces on the board from the support and the pivot?
here,
length of diving board , l = 3 m
weight of board , W1 = 50 N
weight of diver , W2 = 100 N
let the forces on the board from the support and the pivot be Fs and Fp
taking moment of force about the suport
Fp * 1 - W1 * l/2 - W2 * l = 0
Fp - 50 * 3/2 - 100 * 3 = 0
Fp = 375 N
taking moment of force about the pivot
- Fs * 1 = W1 * ( l/2 - 1) + W2 * (l - 1)
- Fs = 50 * 0.5 + 100 * 2
Fs = - 225 N
the forces on the board from the support and the pivot is (225 downwards) and (375 upwards)

A diving board length L = 5.40 m that weighs 220 N is supported by two pillars. One pillar is at the left end of the diving board, as shown below; the other is distance d = 1.60 m away 1. Find the magnitude of the force exerted by the left pillar when a 90.0 kg diver stands at the far end of the board. 2. Find the direction of the force exerted by the right pillar when a 90.0...
1) A diver stand on top of a 4.6 m long diving board. The diving board is supported by the two brackets as shown in the picture above. The diver has a mass of 50 kg (a) What is the value and direction of the force each bracket exerts on the diving board (b) If the diver backs away from the edge of the diving board, what will happen to these two forces? Justify your answer. (c) If the bars...
A diver of weight 420 N stands at the end of a diving board of length L = 4.6 m and negligible mass (the figure). The board is fixed to two pedestals separated by distance d = 1.3 m. Take the upward direction to be positive. Of the forces acting on the board, what are (a) the force from the left pedestal and (b) the force from the right pedestal?
A diving board has a first support at one end with a downward force of 281 N. The second support is 1.81 m away and has an upward force of 409 N. Where is the diver standing to produce these forces?
A 61 kg diver stands at the end of a diving board which is attached to a hinge at the left end and rests on the support in the middle. Ignore the weight of the board. What are the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by A. The support? B. The hinge? 1.5 m 3.0 m

A 77.7 kg diver stands at the end of a 25.9 kg springboard. The board is attached to a hinge at the left end but simply rests on a middle right support. The left end hinge, middle support, and diver are 1.5m and 1.5m (total length 3m) from each other, respectively. 1. What is the magnitude of the vertical force exerted by the right support (at center of diving board) on the board? 2. What is the magnitude of the...
A uniform diving board of mass 100kg and length 4m is supported at its left end and its center by two seperate supports. A 50kg child walks to the right end of the board and stands there. Assuming that the board does not bend or break find the necessary support forces on the left end support and the center support.
A nervous diver stands at rest at the end of a 31 kg diving
board as shown in the figure. If the mass of the diver is 135 kg
and the board is 4.7 m long, what is the net torque exerted on the
diving board due to gravity about the fixed end of the board?
Assume the mass of the board is uniformly distributed, and be sure
to include the proper sign for the torque.
A 61 kg diver stands at the end of a diving board which is attached to a hinge at the left end and rests on the support in the middle. Ignore the weight of the board. What are the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by A. The support? B. The hinge? 1.5 m 3.0 m
A 2.18-m-long diving board of mass 13.2 kg is 3.00 m above the water. It has two attachments holding it in place. One is located at the very back end of the board, and the other is 25.0 cm away from that end. (a) Assuming that the board has uniform density, find the force acting on each attachment. {435 N, upward, 565 N, downward} b) If a diver of mass 69.3 kg is standing on the front end, what are...
