A meter stick on a horizontal frictionless table top is pivoted at the 80-cm mark. A force is applied perpendicularly to the end of the stick at 0 cm, as shown. A second force
(not shown) is applied perpendicularly at the 100-cm end of the stick. The forces are horizontal. If the stick does not move, the force exerted by the pivot on the stick:
A) must be zero
B) must be in the same direction as and have magnitude
C) must be directed opposite to and have magnitude
D) must be in the same direction as and have magnitude
E) must be directed opposite to and have magnitude
