Simple lever with multiple weights outside fulcrum equations and calculators

F x = W a + P b + Q c

Thus:

x = ( W a + P b + Q c) / F


F = ( W a + P b + Q c ) / x


Where:

F = Force ( lbs, N)
W = Weight ( lbs, N)
Q = Weight ( lbs, N)
P = Weight ( lbs, N)
L = Overall Length (in, m)
a = Distance (in, m)
b - Distance (in, m)
c - Distance (in, m)
x - Distance (in, m)
