Answer:
This means that the center of mass is locates 0.72m from the 750N force
Explanation:
Since the board is 2.2m long, that will be the length of the board.
Let the center of mass of the body be hinged at the center using a knife edge as shown in the diagram attached.
Let x be the distance from the 750N force to the knife edge and the distance from the 360N force to the knife edge be 2.2-x
Using the principle of moment which states that the sum of clockwise moment is equal to the sum of anti clockwise moment.
Moment = force × perpendicular distance
For ACW moment;
Moment = 750×x = 750x
For the CW moment;
Moment = 360 × (2.2-x)
Moment = 792-360x
Equating ACW moment to the clockwise moment we have;
750x = 792-360x
750x+360x = 792
1110x = 792
x = 792/1110
x = 0.72m
This means that the center of mass is locates 0.72m from the 750N force
