WEIGHTING IN VAIN
Mr Bloggs cut logs for a
living. Although he weighed
100 kg himself, he could
lift a weight of 150 kg with
his bare hands. However, he
wasn't satisfied with his own
strength, so he installed a
pulley to help him
He tried it out by attaching
a log to the hook and pulling,
as the picture shows. What
was the heaviest log he
could lift in this way?
How much could he lift
if he stood out in the yard?
JUNE SOLUTION
A QUESTION OF BALANCE
The total weight of all the sacks is 123 kg, so they would
be balanced best if there were 61 kg in one pannier and
62 kg in the other. This is possible by putting 35 + 16
+ 11 = 62 in one, and 24 + 17 + 13 + 7 = 61 in the other.
