A uniform diving board, of length 5.00 m and mass 57.0 kg, is supported at two points; one support is located 3.40 m from the end of the board and the second is at 4.60 m from the end. A diver of mass 52.0 kg stands at the end of the board over the water. What is the force acting on the board due to the left-hand support? If the force acting is downward, enter a negative value and if the force acting is upward, enter a positive value.
