A bar of uniform cross section is 28.1 in long and weighs 61.2 lb. A weight of 67.3 lb is suspended from one end.  The bar and

   weight combination is to be suspended from a cable attached at the balance

   point.  How far (in) from the weight should the cable be attached, and what is the tension (lb) in the cable?

A uniform, 245-N rod that is 2.10 m long carries a 225-N weight at its right end and an unknown weight W toward the left end (see the figure (Figure 1)). When W is placed 46.0 cm from the left end of the rod, the system just balances horizontally when the fulcrum is located 69.2 cm from the right end. W= 71.7 N If W is now moved 28.1 cm to the right, how far must the fulcrum be moved...
