Answer:
a)10.28 Nm
b)9.93 Nm
Explanation:
Let g = 9.81m/s2. First we can calculate the weight of the trophy
W = mg = 1.6 * 9.81 = 15.696 N
(a) The torque is product of force and its moment arm
T = WL = 15.696 * 0.655 = 10.28 Nm
(b) Suppose his arm makes an angle of 15 degree with respect to the horizontal line. We can still calculate the arm length, or the horizontal distance from the trophy to the champion:
Again, torque is product of force and its moment arm
