Question

Here is a balanced hanger diagram:
A circle has a mass of 3 grams and a square has a mass of 2 grams.
Which is the mass of a triangle?
a. 9/5 grams
b. 715 grams
c. 3 grams
d. 11 grams

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

11 grams because the the most logical.

Answer 2

 Option C. 3 grams is the answer.

    Mass given,

• One circle = 3 grams
• One square = 2 grams

For the balanced hanger diagram,

• Mass on left arm = Mass on right arm

Mass on left arm = 2.(one triangle) + 6.(one square) + 3.(one circle)

Mass on right arm = 5.(one triangle) + 3.(one square) + 2.(one circle)

Equation for the balanced hanger,

2.(one triangle) + 6.(one square) + 3.(one circle) = 5.(one triangle) + 3.(one square) + 2.(one circle)

Now solve this equation,

(6 - 3).(one square) + (3 - 2).(one circle) = (5 - 2).(one triangle)

3.(one square) + 1.(one circle) = 3.(one triangle)

3.(2) + 1.(3) = 3.(one triangle)

6 + 3 = 3.(one triangle)

One triangle = 3 grams

    Therefore, Option (C) will be the correct option.
