Question 804201: the torque of a force is the product of the force and the perpendicular distance from a specific point. if a lever is supported at only one point and is in balance, the sum of the torques of force s acting on one side of the support must equal the sum of the torques of the forces acting on the other side. Find the forces F1 and F2 that are in the positions shown in fig 5.30a and then move the positions in fig 5.30b. the lever weighs 20N and is in balance in each case

Right. Let me put on my Swami turban and get out my chicken bones, crystal ball, and Tarot cards. Then just MAYBE I can peer into the mystic mists and actually see "fig 5.30a" and "fig 5.30b".
Are you new?
Also, this is a Physics problem that you have submitted to a Mathematics site.
