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

convection
How can you determine whether a soild object is more dense or less dense than water?
You can put a uniform object into water.If it sinks density is higher than water,if floats lesser than water.If you can place anywhere in water,density is equal to water.

Where should the fulcrum effort be placed to easily lift the load resistance?
As close to the load as possible. Note that the closer to the load the fulcrum is placed, the shorter the lift that can be effectuated by the use of the lever.
What would most likely happen if a fulcrum were moved to the left and placed between two empty book holders?
If the book holders are shorter than the fulcrum then it can still function are a fulcrum. If the book holders are taller than the fulcrum then it can't function as a fulcrum.

there is the folcrum and two wedges which are the blades the folcrom is in the middle of the scissor connectin the two blades
What is triple beam balance in science?
Mechanical balances work by adding a known amount of weight against the unknown weight across a fulcrum. This can be done simply by adding more weight, or by shifting the position of the weight relative to the fulcrum (if you've ever used a see-saw, you know you can make yourself "heavier" by moving further away from the middle). In the case of a triple beam balance, which is often used in science classes nowadays, the object to be weighed is placed on a plate that is counter-balanced by sliding a large, medium, and small weight along their respective beams. The beams are marked with the value of the counter-weight along their length allowing you to determine, when the scale is balanced, how much your unknown object weighs based on where the counter-weights sit.

What is Triple Beam Balance ?
The Triple Beam Balance is a typical mechanical balance. It has a beam which is supported by a fulcrum. On one side is a pan on which the object is placed. On the other side, the beam is split into three parallel beams , each supporting one weight.
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.
