Don't know how if the rule meter will be titled or not

[Syndy]

The question says the rule doesn't slip on the pivot but in the answer it says that to draw the rule tilted and in bench and to use suitable number of weight. How to do that?

Hi Syndy,

Could you use the template again next time ?

it says that to draw the rule tilted and in bench and to use suitable number of weight

Strange, I read "Draw on Fig. 5.1 the metre rule with load Q on it".
All they want you to do is let the correct end of the ruler rest on the bench and write some numbers in relevant places. I would just copy the 49.7 and 84.2 -- after all they mention a "49.7" mark and a "84.2 mark"

I'm pretty much forbidden by PF rules to show you the picture I just had fun making, but if you can post an attempt, I'm certainly allowed to comment !

Thank you very much for your reply.
Do you mean I don't put the meter rule over the pivot instead I put it on bench? The answer says the rule to be rule tilted and on bench!

Do you think it will be like this?

Sorry I don't know how to use the template.

Yes, that would be the diagram BvU has, I'm sure.

The marking notes in the 'solution' mention "suitable number(s)", but I suppose Syndy's diagram demonstrates that he/she correctly interpreted those numbers.

If you want to make absolutely sure, draw in both numbers.
