I think the answer is repulsive.... Sorry if I get this wrong? :)
Well you’d have a force due to gravity, the normal force which will be perpendicular to the sources (meaning you’ll have components to this vector), and you’d have the force of friction opposing the motion of the box. I’m also assuming there’s no air resistance. In this case you’d have three vector forces.
Answer:
x = 0.9 m
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use the rotational equilibrium relation, we will assume that the counterclockwise rotations are positive
∑ τ = 0
60 1.5 - 78 1.5 + 30 x = 0
where x is measured from the left side of the fulcrum
90 - 117 + 30 x = 0
x = 27/30
x = 0.9 m
In summary the center of mass is on the side of the lightest weight x = 0.9 m
