Physics Education: Moment Equilibrium

I created this design to teach about moment equilibrium. 

It physically shows what happens when the moment is unequal on both sides.

It is a great tool for teaching multiplication to children and engineering thinking to teenagers.

For the print profile for non-AMS users, I highly recommend using a black marker to increase visibility in the numbers.

This is what I have done for mine :)

I will upload some problems with answers that you can use, below is an example of an answer to a problem.

I will also make them of varying difficulty allowing for gradual teaching.

I'm not home currently so will do this as soon as possible :)

To calculate the moment use this formula: Moment = Distance * Weight

Example:  

Left side: Moment = 8*2 = 16 

Right side: Moment = 6*3 = 18

Right has a higher moment resulting in that side being lower.

Here moment equilibrium is not met resulting in the scale not being horizontal.

Assembly: 

1. Press the pillar into the slot on the base.
2. Hang the scale arms on the pillar.
3. Hang the weights in the scale arms.
