Physical Science Application: Unequal masses will not balance on a fulcrum if they are at equal distance from it, one side will go up and the other side will go down.
Unequal masses will balance when the following proportion is true:
`" ""mass1"/"length2"="mass2"/"length1"`

Two children can be balanced on a seesaw when
`"mass"/"length2"="mass2"/"length1"`. The child on the left and child on the right are balanced. What is the mass of the child on the right?
