blue plate = 20 kg / 45? lbs green plate = 10 kg / 22? lbs on

It doesn't tip either way, the plates are not even on the barbell. You can see the white between them.

obviously the center of mass of the green plates are further from the center of the bar than the center of mass of the blue plates, which leads to more torque on the right side.

>>41213516
no but blue side has more density so it evens the torque back out

>>41213504
Depends where you lift it from.

>the center of mass of the green plates are further from the center of the bar than the center of mass of the blue plates
uhh, i think you got the colours messed up..

Depends on the thickness of the plates and the space between them. If they are equal then it won't tip. But realistically there's is bound to be more overall space between the green plates so that side will tip.

>>41213523
lmao

Ive studied mechanics and statics
Green side produces more torque to the centre of the barbell. It's because green side's centre of mass is further away so there is more leverage

The blue side since the plates are taller :^)

>>41213504

Some assumptions that are just for easier visualization and because the problem was not defined well:

Each plate is 1 meter
The bar is 20 meters long
The plate on each end covers the bar entirely
There are no significantly large gaps between the plates of each color

We can treat each color of plates as one body.

The blue plates have a mass of 60kg with a center of mass located 8.5 meters from the center of the bar.

The green plates have a mass of 60kg with a center of mass located 7 meters from the center of the bar.

Clearly the blue plates have a higher torque. So it will tip towards that side if the bar were balanced on its center.

>>41213628
how dumb are you.

>>41213504
Depends
wheres the pivot point.

>>41213747
sorry, forgot to add words, neither if you grip it at these points

>>41213583
Well you shouldve failed
Green is closer to the center than blue dummy
There is no excess barbell, they are all on the edge

>>41213646
Ironic coming from a literal retard
Read again faggot

>>41213504

if you pick it up from the dead middle of the bar, it doesnt tip either way

if you pick it up from the midway point between the innermost green and blue plates, it'll tip to the green side since theres also MORE OF THE BAR ON THAT SIDE hence more weight

SUCK MY DICK WEW

This is a trick question. Bar bells are circular, so they have no sides. How could it tip to a side to begin with?

It would probably roll to wherever the flatest part of the floor is

Green.

t. I've lifted this.

Dubs here has the right idea

>on which side does the barbell tip?
the right, assuming the point of rotation is in the middle of the black part of the bar

torque = (force) (lever arm)

lever arm is just the distance between the point of rotation and the end of of a given object, and is quite obviously larger on the right

>>41213504

Use whatever the most weighted plate, because it's way more cooler.

>>41213504
depends where the fulcrum is obviously

>>41213994
maybe in that shitty diagram, not in real life though...

>>41213994
that's not how barbells are made

>>41213504
it tips in the direction of your arm that you don't fap with

it tips toward the nearest lady of course

>>41213514

destroyed, OP
