a uniform metre rule placed on a fulcrum at its midpoint and having a weight 50 gf at 10 cm mark and a weight of 40 gf at 90 cm, how can the scale be brought in equilibrium by adding 50 gf |

Answer» Anticlockwise MOMENT = 40 × (50 – 10) = 1600 dyne cm Clockwise moment = 20 × (90 – 50) = 800 dyne cm. Since anticlockwise moment is greater than the clockwise moment. So, for equilibrium suspend the 40gf away from 50 cm mark. Then, 1600 = 800 + 40x ⇒ 40x = 800  The 40 g has to be suspended at (50 + 20) = 70 cm. Explanation: Please mark me as brainliest |
