Best Answer

The centre of gravity would be at the mid point of the scale. So as we hold that particular portion and lift the scale then it will be easier. If we hold at one end and lift then the weight of the scale acting through the mid point would exert a torque whichmakes a rotary effect about the holding point. So it becomes so difficult.

How much hydrogen is enough to lift up 1 kg weight from the ground?

The weight of standard air is 1.2256 Kg/ Cubic Meter The weight of hydrogen is 0.0857 Kg/ Cubic Meter The weight of helium is 0.1691 Kg/ Cubic Meter Subtracting the weight of hydrogen from air gives you the gross buoyant lift of hydrogen as 1.1399 Kg/Cubic Meter Subtracting the weight of helium from air gives you the gross buoyant lift of helium as 1.0565 Kg/Cubic Meter These values are variable under altitude, pressure, temperature, humidity and purity of gas. Hope this helps you.

If you want to lift a 5kg box to the height of meter how much work must be done?

Did you say one meter ?You'll have to give the box 49 joules of additional gravitational potential energy.But since the human muscular system is not 100% efficient, you'll have to spendsomewhat more energy than that in order to do the job. The additional energythat you put into the effort will show up in the form of elevated body temperature,increased heart rate and blood pressure, and warm perspiration on your brow.
