Two students, named Lenlen and Ferdie were asked by their teacher Juan to carry two boxes across an 8-m, simply-supported beam. Ferdie, having a big crush on Lenlen, suggested to carry the heavier box. Lenlen agreed but proposed that they stay 1-m apart, due to social distancing. If the two boxes weighs 20kN and 15kN, what is the maximum vertical reaction in the support that they could make if Lenlen is ahead of Ferdie?
