Answer:
57 kg
Explanation:
Mass of seesaw = 20 kg
Length of seesaw = 4 m
Mass of child on the longer end = 30 kg
The weight of the seesaw acts at the center i.e. 2m
The algebraic sum of moments of all forces about any point is zero, hence, using the fulcrum as the reference point:
[x * 9.8* 1.5] - [20 * 9.8* (2.5 - 2)] - [30 * 9.8 * 2.5] = 0
=> 14.7x = (20*9.8*0.5) + 735
14.7x = 98 + 735
14.7x = 833
=> x = 833/14.7
x = 57 kg
F = m*a when F is force
m is mass and a is acceleration
F = 60 kg * 29 m/s2
F = 1740 N

Answer:What is the first law of thermodynamics and how does it relate to energy use? The first law of thermodynamics states that energy is conserved in chemical processes. ... This amount of energy that must be lost to the surroundings for the process to occur is nature's heat tax, an unavoidable cut of every energy transaction.
