Rotational Equilibrium And Rotational Dynamics

In physics, the state of balance between the forces and the dynamics of motion is called the equilibrium state. The balance between various forces acting on a system in a rotational motion is called rotational equilibrium or rotational dynamics.

Equilibrium of Forces

The tension created on one body during push or pull is known as force.

Hi, I am in physics I and I'm trying to understand this word problem. It saids that a 6.0-m uniform board is supported by two sawhorses 4.0m apart. A 32kg child walks on the board to 1.4 m beyond the right support when the board start to tip. a.) Find the mass of the board b.) Then he walks back 0.40m and stands still. Find the forces exerted by the supports at this time. (use the mass found in part a). Please be detailed of how this works. Its a harder problem for me to understand. Thank you!
