4. Test Procedure and Data CollectionFollowing steps indicates test procedure:1- Change the weight sets on two surrounding weights to desired values2- Change the weight set on central weight to desired value3- Hang the central weight set to desired location on beam (distance L3)4- Let the system come to stationary position5- Measure the angles ?1, ?2, and ?3 identified in below schematic figure using magnetic protractor6- Make a note from the weight F1, F2, F3, and W7- Measure the longitudinal location L3 of load F3 as a percentage of beam length L8- Enter your data in Table 1 to summarize the result of data collection step.
