A rod of mass $1\ kg$ , length $1\ m$ is suspended horizontally with the help of two ideal strings as shown in figure. First a mass is suspended to the left most end keeping rod horizontal, than a second mass is suspended to the right most end again keeping horizontal orientation. The maximum total mass that can be suspended in that way keeping horizontal orientation of rod ....... $kg.$

Persons $A$ and $B$ are standing on the opposite sides of a $3.5 \,m$ wide water stream which they wish to cross. Each one of them has a rigid wooden plank whose mass can be neglected. However, each plank is only slightly longer than $3 \,m$. So, they decide to arrange them together as shown in the figure schematically. With $B$ (mass $17 \,kg$ ) standing, the maximum mass of $A$, who can walk over the plank is close to ............ $kg$
