Answer: 580 N
Refer to attached figure.
The angle of inclination is 22 degrees
weight (gravitational force) acts downwards.
Normal force is a contact force which acts perpendicular to the point of contact.
The horizontal component (mg cos 22 ) balances the normal force and the vertical component balances the frictional force.
Gravitational force on an object = mg
The normal force
let the length of the beam be "L"
from the diagram
AD = length of beam = L
AC = CD = AD/2 = L/2
BC = AC - AB = (L/2) - 1.10
BD = AD - AB = L - 1.10
m = mass of beam = 20 kg
m₁ = mass of child on left end = 30 kg
m₂ = mass of child on right end = 40 kg
using equilibrium of torque about B
(m₁ g) (AB) = (mg) (BC) + (m₂ g) (BD)
30 (1.10) = (20) ((L/2) - 1.10) + (40) (L - 1.10)
L = 1.98 m
