ICSE Class 9 Answered
A load of 20kg weight is suspended at one end of lower which is pivoted on a fulcrum at the other end , as shown in the given figure. The effort (P) (in N). if we apply the effort at the center of lever to balance it , should be (g-20m s)

Expert Answer
To lift the load using effort P at middle of lever , counterclockwise moment of P with respect to
fulcrum should be greater than the clockwise moment of load .
Load W = m g = 20*9.8 = 196 \ N
Hence we get
Hence P = 2 W = 2 × 196 N = 392 N
