The swing

To swing the two girls. Aneta weighs 45 kg and Simon 35 kg weight. How far should Simon sit from the middle of the swing so it is balanced if we know that Aneta is sitting at a distance of 1,5m? How far are girls sitting apart?

Correct answer:

r2 =  1.9286 m
x =  3.4286 m

Step-by-step explanation:

m1=45 m2=35 r1=1.5 M1=M2 m1 g r1 = m2 g r2 r2=m1 r1/m2=45 1.5/35=1.9286 m
x=r1+r2=1.5+1.9286=3.4286 m
