Answer:

c) 1.0 kg

Explanation:

The mass of the stick will be located at the centre of the metre rule. Since the rock is located 0.25m from the pivot, the mass of the meter rule is also 0.25m to the Right of the support

According to law of moment

Sum of clockwise moment = sum of anti clockwise moments

Clockwise moment = M×0.25(mass of metre rule is M)

CW moment = 0.25M

Anti clockwise moment = 0.25×1

ACW moments = 0.25kgm

Equate;

0.25M = 0.25

M = 0.25/0.25

M = 1.0kg

Hence the mass of the metre rule is 1.0kg
