Answer:
2100 N
Explanation:
From the question,
Using the formula
F₁d₁ = F₂d₂..................... Equation 1
Where F₁ = Weight of the Boulder, d₁ = distance moved by the Boulder, F₂ = Force applied on the lever, d₂ = distance moved by the lever.
make F₁ the subject of the equation
F₁ = F₂d₂/d₁.................... Equation 2
Given: F₂ = 350 N, d₁ = 0.25 m, d₂ = 1.5 m
Substitute these values into equation 2
F₁ = 350(1.5)/0.25
F₁ = 2100 N
