Answer:

40 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Load=800 N

Effort=200 N

Load distance=10 cm

We have to find the effort distance.

We know that


load* load\;distance=Effort* effort\;distance

Using the formula


800* 10=200* effort\;distance

Effort distance=
(800* 10)/(200)

Effort distance=
(8000)/(200)

Effort distance=40 cm

Hence, the effort distance will be 40 cm.
