Two persons A and B carry a load of $1000 k g$ by hanging it on a pole, supported on their shoulders. If A can exert a force $4$ times as much as B and the pole is $2.5 m$ long, where should the load be suspended?(in decimeter

Solution

length of pole $= 2.5 m$
$˙ A ˙ B$
$4 : 1$
thus distance from $B$ =
$d = 2.5 \times \frac{1}{5}$
$d = 0.5 m = 50 c m$
$d = 5 d m$
Answer is $5$
