A long uniform board weighs 52.8 N (10.6 lbs) rests on a support at its mid point. Two children weighing 206.0 N (41.2 lbs) and 272.0 N (54.4 lbs) stand on the board so that the board is balanced. What is the upward force exerted on the board by the support?

Respuesta :

The upward force exerted on the board by the support is mathematically given as

Fu= 764.8 N

What is the upward force exerted on the board by the support?

Generally, the equation for is  mathematically given as

Considering that the Net Force on the system is null

The weight of the children plus the weight of the board equals the upward force imposed on the support.

The upward force

Fu= 440 + 272 + 52.8 N

Fu= 764.8 N

In conclusion, he upward force exerted on the board by the support

Fu= 764.8 N
