Hello guys,
I am doing some basic design work and can't remember how offset torques work.
I am doing the sum of the torques should be equal to 0 in order to find the tipping point around either of the wheels.

Hi all,

Hello,
I am having difficulties trying to work out one problem. I've attached a picture explaining the situation - the task is to determine internal forces in C but the bending moment M(x) doesn't seem to get me the correct results (I used equivalance and went from LHS). I would greatly...
Can someone explain, what means that we can choose any arbitrary point to calculate moment and result will always be identical?
If I choose point 1 ...20kg x 1m = 20kg x 3m...seesaw right side will fall down

The book I am reading says that given a point mass(m) at the point x, the quantity mx is the "moment about the origin)"
It then defines the moment of a collection of points as M = m(1)x(1) + m(2)x(2) + ... m(n)x(n)
where m(1) = mass of first point and x(1)=distance of first...
