Question

Hey pls help thanks a lot

5. A force F of magnitude 8.20 N acts at an angle of
30°on a non-uniform rod of weight 10.0 N and
length 1.00 m freely hinged to a wall at pivot P,
such that the rod remains horizontal. Find d, the
distance of the centre of gravity of the rod from P?

(A) 0.410 m
(C) 0.710 m
(B) 0.500 m
(D) 0.820 m
​

Answer 1

I am not sure about the answer as I don't have a proper calculator besides me now

Step-by-step explanation:

but I used this equation:

(8.20)sin30(1-d)=10d

Idk whether it is correct or not, I'm just a student too

what is your method of doing this question?
