Question 3 Multiple Choice (Single Answer)

A heavy seesaw (i.e., not massless) is out of balance. A light girl sits on the end that is tilted downward, and a heavy body sits on the other side so that the seesaw now balances.

  1. The side the body is sitting on will tilt downward
  2. The side the girl is sitting on will once again tilt downward
  3. Nothing; the seesaw will still be balanced.
  4. It is impossible to say without knowing the masses and the distances.
