Place 4n worth of force 0.2m from the fulcrum where would you have to place 2n in order for the lever to balance?

The force is equal to the mass times your lever arm. If 4n is placed 0.2m from the fulcrum, you have 0.8 force units on you lever arm. This would imply that a mass of 2n should be placed 0.4m from the fulcrum in the opposite direction. This would give you 0.8 force units on both sides, thereby balancing the lever.

What is the balance point called on a lever?
The pivot point of a lever is called the fulcrum.
Does a lever pivot on a fulcrum or a torque?
Fulcrum. Torque is the force applied to move the lever
The fixed balance point on a lever?
It is the fulcrum.
The fix point of a lever is called a?
The fixed point of a lever is called the fulcrum. A lever is a beam connected by a hinge, or pivot, called a fulcrum. A lever is used to amplify the applied force.
How does moving fulcrum on a lever change the amount of force needed to move an object?
how does moving a fulcrum on a lever change the amount of force needed to move an object
What is the balance point called on a lever?
The pivot point of a lever is called the fulcrum.
Why is fulcrum necessary in making a lever?
because it balance the lever
Does a lever pivot on a fulcrum or a torque?
Fulcrum. Torque is the force applied to move the lever
Point around which a lever rotates?
The fulcrum. A Lever is a rigid rod to which a force can be applied to overcome a resistance. The point at which a lever pivots is called the fulcrum.
The fixed balance point on a lever?
It is the fulcrum.
The fix point of a lever is called a?
The fixed point of a lever is called the fulcrum. A lever is a beam connected by a hinge, or pivot, called a fulcrum. A lever is used to amplify the applied force.
What type of lever is seesaw?
first class lever. Why? because it is in the order of output force-fulcrum-input force. output force ______________________________ input force fulcrum
What is the balance point of a lever?
fulcrum
How does a fulcrum work?
It is the balance point of a lever. That is all there is to it!
If the input force is between the fulcrum and the output force what kind of lever is it?
first class lever
How does moving fulcrum on a lever change the amount of force needed to move an object?
how does moving a fulcrum on a lever change the amount of force needed to move an object
What is the definition of a load of a lever?
Load = the force of the weight of the lever fulcrum = the point of which the lever rests effort = the force you apply to the lever
