Tipping Point of Stationary Barbell

[vedant_krish]

TL;DR Summary: Please Help. I need an answer for an Investigation

if a uniform bar of length 2200mm is supported evenly on 2 points (1 and 2) 1190mm apart. The bar is comprised of 3 sections (A, B and C) of varying masses. Section A and C have equal mass and volume and is comprised of the parts of the bar hanging before Point 1 and extending past Point 2 respectively. The length of Section A and C are both 445mm. The total mass of the bar is 20kg. A Load of width 67mm and x kilogram mass is placed in the middle of Section C. For what value x does the bar start tipping? (Answer in terms of Mass of Section A or C)

Mentor note: Moved to homework forum, so no template.

Welcome, @vedant_krish !

What calculations have you done to reach that needed answer?
What are you investigating?

Also, where the length of sections A and C (445 mm) is measured from?

2200 mm - 1190 mm ≠ 2 x 445 mm
