A 10-meter long non-uniform beam whose weight is 150 N has its center of gravity 4 meters from the left end. It is supported horizontally by two vertical poles, A and B. Pole A is placed at the left end of the beam while pole B is placed at the right end. Where must a 450-N load be place so that
a) pole A and pole B exert equal forces and
b) pole B exerts twice as much force as pole A.

Can you show me your solution pls.?
