Balance Point

Stage: 4 Challenge Level:

Attach weights of 1, 2, 4, and 8 units to the four attachment points on the bar. Move the bar from side to side until you find a balance point. Is it possible to predict that position?

Inside Outside

Stage: 4 Challenge Level:

Balance the bar with the three weight on the inside.

Balances and Springs

Stage: 4 Challenge Level:

Balancing interactivity with springs and weights.

Swings and Roundabouts

Stage: 4 Challenge Level:

If you were to set the X weight to 2 what do you think the angle might be?

Balancing 3

Stage: 3 Challenge Level:

Mo has left, but Meg is still experimenting. Use the interactivity to help you find out how she can alter her pouch of marbles and still keep the two pouches balanced.

Balancing 1

Stage: 3 Challenge Level:

Meg and Mo need to hang their marbles so that they balance. Use the interactivity to experiment and find out what they need to do.

Balancing 2

Stage: 3 Challenge Level:

Meg and Mo still need to hang their marbles so that they balance, but this time the constraints are different. Use the interactivity to experiment and find out what they need to do.
