The broom handle that she have to balance if she hung a 400g mass from the end of the broom handle is 5.24m

This problem is centered on moment. Moment is the turning effect of a force about a point. It is expressed as:

Moment = Force× Distance

According to principle of moment, the sum of clockwise moment is equal to sum of anticlockwise moment at shown

M1d1 = M2d2

Given the following

M1 = 1.5kg

d1 = 1.4m

M2 = 400g = 0.4kg

d2 is required

Substitute

1.5(1.4) = 0.4d2

2.1 = 0.4d2

d2 = 2.1/0.4

d2 = 5.24m

Hence the broom handle that she have to  if she hung a 400g mass from the end of the broom handle is 5.24m

Can someone help with number 4 please
kondaur [170]
The way I look at these things is like this:

-- The runner covered 12 meters in 4 seconds.
Average speed = 3 meters per second.

-- Speed at the beginning = zero.
In order to make the average 3, Speed at the end = 6 meters per second.

-- Speed increased from zero to 6 meters per second in 4 seconds.
It must have increased 1.5 meters per second each second.

That's choice-#2.
