r this result might also be produced by giving to the longerarm the lighter scale. iii. The beam being horizontal, its centre 0/ gravity ought to be in thesame vertical platie with the edge 0/ the fulcrum, and a little below the latter,for otherwise the beam would not be in stable equilibrium (72).… … Fig- 54 When the fulcrum is at the top of the groove c, in which it slides, thecentre of gravity of the beam is below its edge, and the latter oscillatesfreely about a position of stable equilibrium. By gradually lowering thefulcrum its edge may be made to pass through the centre of gravity of…
