    Answer:

    Just over 300 N

    Explanation:

    Just over 300 N

    Explanation: The goat is 1 meter from the fulcrum, and the strongman is 3 meters from the fulcrum. The mechanical advantage of the lever will be 3. The effort needed to lift the goat will be just over one-third the weight of the goat, in this case just over 300 newtons.

    Answer: The smallest effort = 300N

    Explanation:

    Using one of the condition for the attainment of equilibrium:

    Clockwise moment = anticlockwise moments

    900 × 1 = 3 × M

    Where M = the weight of the strong man

    3M = 900

    M = 900/3 = 300N

    Therefore, 300N is the smallest effort that the strongman can use to lift the goat
