Help needed calculating felt weight on Calf Raise Machine
Hi.
In my gym there is this Hoist Plate Loaded Standing Calf Raise machine, and I was wondering how much of the loaded weight actually would feel if I was doing calf raises with just a barbell or something.
I tried googling it but it seems like no one really cares about this too much.
I found the manual but there is nothing about this in it and I am way too dumb for this kind of physics, I would'nt even know where to start but if someone here is ready for the challenge I have a picture from the manual and measured some force arm lenghts relative to each other in pixels.
I would really like to know what is the ratio for Y kg (loaded weight) and X kg (actual felt kg)
The link to the manual if the info is not enough:

If someone could spare their knowledge and time to calculate I would be ever greatful. Thanks.
Edit1: I basically feel like you could simplify it to like a lever arm maybe? pivoted at point A and lifted up by the end and the weight is somewhere between.
Also reading the manual I found out that is I am almost at the max loading weight and I dont know what will I do with my life now.
