Given F1 = 10, F21 = 20, Distance from F1 to fulcrum (x) = 5
Calculate Lever Length (d)
The Lever Equation is as follows:
F1x = F2(d - x)
Multiply the right side of the equation out:
F1x = F2d - F2x
Add F2x to both sides:
F1x + F2x = F2d - F2x + F2x
Cancelling F2x on the right side, we get:
F1x + F2x = F2d
Factor out x:
x(F1 + F2) = F2d
Divide each side of the equation by F2:
Cancelling F2 on the right side, we get:
Plug in our numbers and simplify:
Final Answer:
Lever Length (d) = 7.5
