two people are holding a unifrom beam of length 7.6m and weight 450N. the first person is holding the beam 1 m from the left end the second is holding the beam 2m from the right end determine the force the each person exerts on the beam.
choosing the axis as the left most person who exerts F1
sum F = F1 + F2 -450=0
sum torque = 4.6F2-2.8*450 =0
