4. A non-uniform plank \(A B\) of mass 20 kg and length 6 m is supported at both ends so that it is horizontal. When a woman of mass 60 kg stands on the plank at a distance of 2 m from \(B\), the magnitude of the reaction at \(A\) is \(35 g \mathrm {~N}\).
- Suggest a suitable model for
- the plank,
- the woman.
- Calculate the magnitude of the reaction at \(B\), giving your answer in terms of \(g\).
- Explain briefly, in the context of the problem, the term 'non-uniform'.
- Find the distance of the centre of mass of the plank from \(A\).
