Chris and Jamie are carrying Wayne on a horizontal stretcher. The uniform stretcher is 2.00 m long and weighs 100 N. Wayne weighs 800 N. Wayne's center of gravity is 75.0 cm from Chris. Chris and Jamie are at the ends of the stretcher. The upward force that Jamie is exerting to support the stretcher, with Wayne on it, is:

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

The value is

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The length of the stretcher is  

    The weight of the stretcher is

    The weight for Wayne is  

     The distance of  center of gravity for Wayne from Chris is

Generally taking moment about the first end where Chris is

                       => upward moment

Here is the force applied by Jamie

Generally  taking moment about the second end where Jamie is

           => downward moment

Generally at equilibrium , the upward moment is equal to the downward moment

=>  

=>    

+15-35=-20

going in opposite directions
