Two children push on opposite sides of a door during play. Both push horizontally and perpendicular to the door. One child pushes with a force of 17.1 N at a distance of 0.551 m from the hinges, and the second child pushes at a distance of 0.338 m. What force must the second child exert to keep the door from moving? Assume friction is negligible.

Center of Gravity of a system

The centre of gravity is a property that is based on the geometry of a rigid body or any particle. It is described as an equilibrium point or a hypothetical location where the total weight of the body is concentrated.
