Given information
We are given that:-
The uniform aluminum pole 
is 
long and has a mass 
. The mass of the traffic light is 
.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
The pole is in equilibrium, so the net torque on it must be zero. From the free-body diagram
Use the formula for equilibrium:
Where, 
is the applied force and 
represents its corresponding distance from the rotational axis.
