A horizontal, uniform board of weight 125 N and length 4 m is supported by vertical

A horizontal, uniform board of weight 125 N and length 4 m is supported by vertical chains at each end. A person weighing 500 N is hanging from the board. The tension in the right chain is 250 N.
Which of the following describes where the person is hanging?

let Tension in the left chain is F

here, Fnet = 0

β‡’F - 500N + 250 N - 125 N = 0

β‡’F - 375 N = 0

β‡’F = 375 N

let r from the left end of the board is the person sitting.

now torque at left end, Ο„ = 0.

β‡’375 Γ— (0) - 500N Γ— (r) + 250N Γ— (4m) - 125 N Γ— (2m) = 0

β‡’0 - 500r + 1000 - 250 = 0

β‡’750 = 500r

β‡’r = 750/500 = 1.5 m
