Question

a force of 5.5 n is applied to an object. the moment arm for the force is 0.84 m. what is the torque produced by the force?

Answer 1

A force of 5.5N is applied to an object. The moment arm for the force is 0.84 m, the torque produced by the force is 4.62N-m.

A force applied perpendicularly to a lever multiplied by its distance from the lever's fulcrum (the length of the lever arm) is its torque. We can find the torque from a force by taking the perpendicular component of that force and multiplying by the magnitude of the R vector where this R vector is the vector that points from the axis to the point where the force is applied.

To calculate torque produced by the force, we have-

Torque= forcexmoment arm

T = fxd

T =5.5Nx0.84m

T=4.62N-m.
