Hey all, I just have a conceptual torques/center of gravity question.

If I have a 60N wooden plank with a certain distance with two fulcrums, one at the center of gravity and one at the end of the plank...

Would the fulcrum at the center of gravity exert the full 60N back onto the plank while the fulcrum at the very end exert 0 N? Is this right?
