Consider the robotic arm shown below, made up of individual arms AB and BC. The weight of
the arms AB and BC are each 160 N, and the resultant weight force is shown to act through each
arm's center of gravity as shown. You may assume that the center of gravity is occurring along the
midpoint of each arm's length. The robotic arm is picking up a package that weighs 40 N, and the
40 N weight force acts through the package's center of gravity at the location shown.
