W_1 is weight at the left end, W_2 is the weight at the right end. Total weight is W=W_1+W_2=mg Second Condition of Equilibrium: W_1 (l-d)=W_2 d W_1 (l-d)=(mg-W_1)d (mg-W_1 )=W_1 (l-d)/d W_1=mg 1/(1+(l-d)/d)=mg d/l=(100)(9.81) 6/15=392 N. W_2=(mg-W_1 )=(mg-mg d/l)=mg(1-d/l)=(100)(9.81)(1-6/15)=589 N.
