I can't figure this problem out and i don't know where to start.
A young boy(50kg) wants to lift a boulder with a mass of 2500kg. He can wedge a board under it so that from the boulder to a pivot/fulcrum is 0.6 meters. How long does the other end of the board have to be for the boy to lift the boulder.
Any ideas?
