Three children is trying to balance a uniformed seesaw. Boy A who has a mass of 20-kg is placed 3.5 meters away from the support on the one side of the seesaw. Boy B who has a mass of 40-kg sits 2.5 meters away from the support on the opposite side of the seesaw. The seesaw is made up of a steel that is 10-kg and 10 meters long. Where should the girl whose mass is 25-kg place herself to balance the seesaw? Find the magnitude of the upward force exerted by the support on the steel.
A 164-cm-tall person lies on a light (massless) board which is supported by two scales, one under the top of her head and one beneath the bottom of her feet.

The uniform seesaw shown below is balanced on a fulcrum located d1 = 3.5m from the left end. The bigger boy on the left end has a mass m1 =75 kg. The smaller boy on the right end has a mass of m2 = 55 kg and is a distance d2 = 4.5 m from the fulcrum. The mass of the board is mb. Draw all forces acting on the seesaw board showing their directions and locations. Where would you draw the weight of the board? Identify and show the direction of rotations caused by the torques provided by all forces about the fulcrum. If the seesaw is in static equilibrium, write down the two conditions of static equilibrium symbolically using the forces and distances in the figure. Solve for the mass of the board. Calculate the force of fulcrum on the board.
