Do A 150-g object is placed at the zero end of a uniform meter stick. The meter stick is balanced with a fulcrum at the 25-cm mark. What is the mass (in g) of the meter stick?

since it is balanced the net moment about the pivot is zero. The meter stick center of gravity mass is at the 50 cm point, or 25 cm to the right of the pivot. 150 x 25 = mass of stick x 25 ; so mass is also 150 grams


What would you use to find the mass of a person?

Why isn't the center o gravity of the meter stick necessarily at axactly the 0.50-m mark?

There may be additional length on either side. Or the mass may be distributed unevenly. Or there may be a steep gravity gradient, so that the center of mass is not the center of gravity (don't bet on it, though).


What is the mass of a wooden meter stick in hectograms?

The answer will depend on how wide and thick it is.


Consider a meter stick whose mass is 300 grams and which lies on ice You pull at one end of the meter stick at right angles to the stick with a force of 25N causing the stick to rotate clockwise?

The answer will depend on the material of the metre stick. Some are wood but there are also plastic or metal ones.

How would you find the middle of a stick?

Measure the length of the stick and divide that number by 2. For example: If the length of the stick is measured to be 2 meters, then 2 meters / 2 = 1 meter. The middle of the stick can be located by measuring 1 meter from either end of the stick towards the center (middle) of the stick.


Is a meter stick equal to 1 meter?

No. A stick is a stick and a meter is a unit of length.


Why isn't the center of gravity of the meter stick necessarily at exactly 0.50 m mark?

Perhaps the stick is not of equal thickness along its length.
