Two masses are on a seesaw on opposite sides of the pivot point. On the left side of the seesaw there is a 12kg mass sitting 1.5m away from the pivot point. How far away from the pivot point would a mass of 16kg be placed on the right side of the seesaw for the seesaw to perfectly balance?
Round to the appropriate number of significant figs.

A heavy and a light person stand on opposite sides of a seesaw so that the seesaw is horizontal and in balance. The seesaw consists of a plank which can rotate freely around a pivot shaft. Both persons move at the same time 25 cm towards the pivot shaft. What happens? (a) The seesaw will remain in balance; (b) The end of the heavier person will go down; (c) The end of the lighter person will go down; (d) It...

Question 2 (2 Points) Static Equilibrium - Modified Seesaw (including mass of the seesaw) The two children shown in the Figure are balanced on a seesaw. The first child has a mass of m1= 16.2 kg and sits r1 = 2.1 m from the pivot. The center of mass of the seesaw is r3 = 0.36 m to the left of the pivot (on the side of the lighter child) and assume a mass of M = 13.4 kg for...

Balanced Beam With Two Masses
A uniform horizontal beam is balanced on a pivot with two equal
masses resting on top, as shown. The "x" indicates the center of
mass of the beam by itself. If mass 1 is moved two units to the
left and mass two is moved two units to the right, which statement
below is correct? Note: "units" refer to the tick
marks on the beam.
