Answer:

20kg

30kg

60kg

120kg

since weight is mass x force,

and gravitational force in earth is 10N;

mass will me weight/force

Explanation:

Answer:

1. If Burl dangles from the right side, T₂ = 600 N and T₁ = 0.

2. If Burl dangles from the left side, T₂  = 0 and T₁= 600 N.

Explanation:

Using the equilibrium rule, sum of all forces equal to zero. We could have here two different cases.

1. If Burl dangles from the right side, T₂ = W and T₁ = 0.

2. If Burl dangles from the left side, T₂  = 0 and T₁= W.

Here:

  • T₁ is the tension force of the left cord (left scale)
  • T₂  is the tension force of the right cord (right scale)
  • W is the weight of Burl

Therefore:

In the first case the weight measured by the scale on the right will be 600 N and in the second case the weight will be 0.

I hope it helps you!
