The two factors that govern the torque or turning moment are her mass and the horizontal distance from the seesaw centre to her centre of gravity.
Yes, the torque changes when a partner on a seesaw stands or hangs from her end instead of sitting. The torque is influenced by both the amount of force applied and the distance from the pivot point. When standing or hanging, the distance changes, affecting the torque.
A seesaw is an example of a first-class lever. The fulcrum, which is the part of the lever that does not move, is in the middle. The resistance, which is the weight (person) you are trying to lift is at one end. The effort, which is the force applied to the lever, is the person sitting on the other end.
A lighter person sitting closer to the pivot point of a seesaw exerts a smaller torque compared to a heavier person sitting farther from the pivot point. This difference in torque allows the heavier person to be lifted. The principle involved is torque, or the rotational force, in relation to the pivot point.
The main forces involved when on a seesaw are gravity, which pulls objects towards the Earth's center, and the normal force, which is the force exerted by the seesaw pushing back on the person sitting on it. These forces create a balanced system where one end of the seesaw goes up while the other goes down.
A seesaw works due to the force of gravity acting on the two people sitting on either end. As one person pushes down, their end goes up because the fulcrum (pivot point) acts as a balance point for the seesaw to rotate around. The seesaw operates on the principle of the lever, with the downward force of one person causing the other end to move upward.

The path of the end of a seesaw is an arc or semicircle.
To balance the seesaw, your partner should weigh 144 pounds. This is because the weight of each person multiplied by their distance from the fulcrum should be equal. So, 120 pounds × 15ft = Partner's weight × 20ft, which amounts to 144 pounds.

The heavier person should sit closer to the pivot point of the seesaw to balance it with a lighter person sitting further away from the pivot. This allows the seesaw to remain level when both people are seated.
You must be sitting twice as far away from the pivot, on your side, as your sister is on her side.
