Zachary presses down on the bar as he can. In - as he can. In Fig-1a, Zoey has to use all her strength to lift Zachary's strain herself at all and she's able to easil hand a distance, h. In Fig-1b, Zoey barely has to y raise Zachary's hand the same distance, h. Explain from a detailed, physics point of view why that's so. Hand 2 Hand 2 Figure 1 - (a) Zoey (Hand 2) has to really struggle to raise Zachary's hand (Hand 1) a distance h. (b) Zoey is quite easily able to raise Zachary's hand a distance, h. In both cases, Zachary uses all his strength to try to stop Zoey from raising his hand.

Explanation / Answer

In the second case , the moment that zoey is able to apply is far larger due to the larger distance from the point of support,

on the other hand, the first case, the zoey applies the same force, but does not provide the same momnet about the support point,

thus, F. X zoey < F . X azchary in case 1 and vice versa
