To get up on the roof, a person (mass 70.0 kg) places a 6.00-m aluminum ladder (mass 10.0 kg) against the house on a concrete pad with the base of the ladder 2.00 m from the house. The ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2 m from the bottom. The person is standing 3 m from the bottom. What are the magnitudes of the forces on the ladder at the top and bottom?
A meter stick balances horizontally on a knife-edge at the 50.0 cm mark. With two 3.81 g coins stacked over the 13.2 cm mark, the stick is found to balance at the 28.4 cm mark. What is the mass of the meter stick? Number Units

A balance has a 5.0kg object at 0.5m from the fulcrum, and a 20.0kg object a certain ways in the opposite direction from the fulcrum. Where would the 20.0kg object need to be for the system to be balanced? Suppose you placed the 20.0kg object at 0.5m away from the fulcrum in the opposite direction of the 5.0kg object. This would result in an unbalanced system. Where could you then place a 10kg object to rebalance the system?
