The fulcrum is the point in any mechanical device where the moment due to weights is zero.

(Weight 1 x distance 1) - (weight 2 x distance 2) = 0

(1.7 Kg x 1.5 m ) - (weight 2 x 1.2 m) = 0

weight 2 = (1.7 Kg x 1.5 m ) / 1.2 m

= 2.1 Kg

dybincka [34]
One of the main reasons why there is a need to create additional three kingdoms was due to the invention of the microscope. The scientific device paved way for a more intensive study of the tiny organisms most considered as single-celled which cannot be seen by the naked eye.
