The weight of the other object placed 1 m from the fulcrum that balances the other object is 2.5 N.

<h3>Principle of moment</h3>

The weight of the second object is determined by applying principle of moment as shown below;

take moment about the pivot,

sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment

F₁r₁ = F₂r₂

5 x 0.5 = F₂ x 1

2.5 N = F₂

Thus, the weight of the other object placed 1 m from the fulcrum that balances the other object is 2.5 N.
