Question

1. Do the following experiment in class: Place a stand horizontally on the table. Place a meter stick on top of the stand so that it balances at the 50 cm mark and doesn't touch the surface of the table. Place weights on the left and on the right of the balance point so that the meter stick balances. On left 20 grams 10 grams 10 grams 10 grams Distance from middle 20 cm 20 cm 30 cm 40 cm On the right 10 grams 20 grams 20 grams 20 grams Distance from middle? cm cm cm cm 2. Record your work in the table above. What is the relationship between the positions (as measured from the middle) of the left and right weights, and the force that each weight exerts on the ruler? 3. For each situation, draw a picture of the stick showing all of the forces exerted on it. Find a pattern that relates the distances of the weights from the point of balance and the magnitudes of forces the weights exert on the meter stick.

Hi,

I believe you need to provide me the details for the last column " Distance from middle"

Thank you.
