A 20.0-kg horizontal plank 4.00 m long rests on two supports, one at the left end and a second 1.00 m from the right end. What is the magnitude of the force exerted on the plank by the support near the right end? (a) 32.0 N (b) 45.2 N (c) 112 N (d) 131 N (e) 98.2 N
Four pets named Arjay, Baguilat, Cuh-ing, and Dabest play a pulling game with a rope as shown below. Arjay pulls strongly with 610.0 units of force (N). Baguilat pulls with a force of magnitude B = 200.0 N, and Cuh-ing pulls with aforce of magnitude C = 140.0 N. When Dabest pulls on the rope in such a way that his force balances out the resultantof the other three forces, the rope does not move in any direction. With how much force and in what direction mustDabest pull on the rope for the situation to happen? I need help in figuring out is the magnitude of Dabest's pulling force? the direction(use method 1: zero-degree reference line) of Dabest's pulling force and What is the direction(use method 2: geographical direction) of Dabest's pulling force?

A m1 = 1.50-kg aluminum block and a m2 = 6.10-kg copper block are connected by a light string over a frictionless pulley. The two blocks are allowed to move on a fixed steel block wedge (of angle θ = 32.0°) as shown in the figure. (For aluminum on steel, μs = 0.61 and μk = 0.47. For copper on steel, μs = 0.53 and μk = 0.36.)
