An evil professor invents a physics problem with no context and gives you the following diagram. Two rigid beams of an unimportant material, one of unknown length r1 and the other of length r2= 2.3 meters are affixed to each other and rotate around a block dot that usually represents a pivot point in problems such as these. For no reason, a force F1= 3.1 N is exerted directly downwards at the end of the first beam. Likewise a force...
