A tightrope walker is walking between two buildings holding a pole with length ?=18.0 m,L=18.0 m, and mass ??=17.0 kg.mp=17.0 kg. The daredevil grips the pole with each hand a distance ?=0.560 md=0.560 m from the center of the pole. A bird of mass ??=515 gmb=515 g lands on the very end of the left‑hand side of the pole.
Assuming the daredevil applies upward forces with the left and right hands in a direction perpendicular to the pole, what magnitude of force ?leftFleft and ?rightFright must the left and right hand exert to counteract the torque of the bird?
