A drawer of negligible mass is at rest at the extreme left of a table of 25.0 kg and 2.00 m in length (see figure). The width of the drawer is 75.0 cm and sand is to be distributed evenly in it. The center of gravity of the nonuniform table is 50.0 cm from the far right. What mass of sand should be placed in the drawer so that the board balances horizontally on its fulcrum, which is positioned exactly below its midpoint?
