Weight of the women in pounds = 125 lb
1 kg is heavier than 1 pound and 1 Kilogram is same as 2.20462 pounds.
So 125 lb gives 125 / 2.20462 kilo grams = 56.699 kg and the value is less than 125.

The first thing you should know to solve this problem is the conversion of pounds to kilograms:
1lb = 0.45 Kg
We can solve this problem by a simple rule of three
1lb ---> 0.45Kg
125lb ---> x
Clearing x we have:
x = ((125) / (1)) * (0.45) = 56.25 Kg.
Answer
her mass expressed in kilograms is 56.25 Kg.

Answer: 3 m.

Explanation:

Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by gravity acting on both children must be 0.

As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.

If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):

mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0

60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0

Solving for d:

d = 3 m.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law that relates force as the product between acceleration and mass. From there, we will get the acceleration. Finally, through the cinematic equations of motion we will find the time required by the object.

If the Force (F) is 42N on an object of mass (m) of 83000kg we have that the acceleration would be by Newton's second law.

$F = ma \rightarrow a = \frac{F}{m}$
