Grid of Balance Diagrams with Weight and Distance Values

Rows of beams varying weights (8, 6, 4, 2, 1) against a value of 12

Physics & Mechanics Arithmetic & Proportion

The sheet is filled with rows of small balance-beam diagrams, each annotated with paired values such as 8-12 and 4-8 that stand for weights and arm-lengths. Down the rows one term is systematically reduced, 8 then 6, 4, 2, 1, against the constant 12, exploring how the ratios govern the beam's balance. A fragmentary heading at the upper left ('In all th[ese]...') introduces the series, and a long vertical rod is drawn along the left edge.

On this page

Rows of balance beams annotated with weight-and-distance pairs

Each small beam carries paired numbers such as 8-12 and 4-8 that mark its weights and arm-lengths, the whole page working through many balance configurations in sequence.

Systematic reduction of one term (8, 6, 4, 2, 1) against 12

In the lower rows the first value steps down through 6-12, 4-12, 2-12 and 1-12 while the pair 4-8 is held constant, tabulating how changing ratios alter the balance.
