(a)
(b)
no difference
The answer depends on the rotational
inertia of the dumbbell.

17. CT5: A girl has a large, docile dog she wishes to weigh on a small bathroom scale. She reasons that she can determine her dog's weight by the following method. First she puts the dog's two front feet on the scale and records the scale reading. Then she places the dog's two back feet on the scale and records the scale reading. Assume the dog is standing. She thinks that the sum of the readings will be the dog's weight. Is she correct?
No, the weight will be too large.
No, the weight will be too small.
Yes.
