8. A fisher slowly lifts a fish with a 6 m long fishing-rod, the mass of which 0.5 kg. One hand of the fisher holds grip at the end of the rod with a force 200 N, the other at a distance X from the end with a force 150 N. Find distance X and mass of the fish. Sketch the force diagram. Assume that the rod is a cylinder with uniform distribution of mass over its length.

An 88 kg person stands on a uniform ladder 4.0 m long, that weighs 100 N, as shown in the figure(Figure 1). The floor is rough; hence, it exerts both a normal force, f1, and a frictional force, f2, on the ladder. The wall, on the other hand, is frictionless; it exerts only a normal force, f3.

Two children push on opposite sides of a door during play. Both push horizontally and perpendicular to the surface of the door. One child pushes with a force of 18.5 N at a distance of 0.625 m from the hinges, and the second child pushes at a distance of 0.47 m. a) What is the magnitude of the force, in newtons, the second child must exert to keep the door from moving? Assume friction is negligible. F2 =
A tightrope walker is walking between two buildings holding a pole with length L = 14.0 m, and mass m, = 18.5 kg. The daredevil grips the pole with each hand a distance d = 0.575 m from the center of the pole. A bird of mass m, = 545 g lands on the very end of the left-hand side of the pole. 2d Assuming the daredevil applies upward forces with the left and right hands in a direction perpendicular to the pole, what magnitude of force Fieft and Fright must the left and right hand exert to counteract the torque of the bird? Fieft = N Fright N
