Three children is trying to balance a uniformed seesaw. Boy A who has a mass of 20-kg is placed 3.5 meters away from the support on the one side of the seesaw. Boy B who has a mass of 40-kg sits 2.5 meters away from the support on the opposite side of the seesaw. The seesaw is made up of a steel that is 10-kg and 10 meters long. Where should the girl whose mass is 25-kg place herself to balance the seesaw? Find the magnitude of the upward force exerted by the support on the steel.
A tightrope walker is walking between two buildings holding a pole with length ?=15.5 m, and mass ??=19.5 kg. The daredevil grips the pole with each hand a distance ?=0.575 m from the center of the pole. A bird of mass ??=525 g lands on the very end of the left‑hand side of the pole. Assuming the daredevil applies upward forces with the left and right hands in a direction perpendicular to the pole, what magnitude of force ?left and ?right must the left and right hand exert to counteract the torque of the bird?
A balance has a 5.0kg object at 0.5m from the fulcrum, and a 20.0kg object a certain ways in the opposite direction from the fulcrum. Where would the 20.0kg object need to be for the system to be balanced? Suppose you placed the 20.0kg object at 0.5m away from the fulcrum in the opposite direction of the 5.0kg object. This would result in an unbalanced system. Where could you then place a 10kg object to rebalance the system?
The maximum load that can be supported by a crane is determined by the torque that the load exerts about the pivot point of the crane. If a certain crane is rated to support a load of 1000kg at a distance of 10m from its main tower, how large a load can it support at a distance of 40m from its main tower?

A 0.643 kg cat sits at the end of a 15.7 kg, 11.2 m long beam. An accident occurs and the support cable breaks, causing the beam to rotate without friction until it hits the wall. If the cat held onto the end of the beam what would its speed be as it impacts the wall? (however, it is smart and jumps off part way down)
