About This Product
Students first balance the empty arm level on the knife-edge, then hang a known mass on one side and slide a second hanger along the other until the arm is level again. Multiplying each load by its distance from the pivot shows that anticlockwise and clockwise moments are equal at balance, which leads into torque, levers and static equilibrium.
