Two children hang by their hands from the same tree branch. The branch is straight, and grows out from the tree trunk at an angl

e of 27.0° above the horizontal. One child, with a mass of 44.0 kg, is hanging 1.00 m along the branch from the tree trunk. The other child, with a mass of 27.0 kg, is hanging 2.10 m from the tree trunk. What is the magnitude of the net torque exerted on the branch by the children? Assume that the axis is located where the branch joins the tree trunk and is perpendicular to the plane formed by the branch and the trunk.

Answer:879.29 N-m

Explanation:

Given

mass of first child m_1=44 kg

distance of first child from tree is r_1=1 m

tree is inclined at an angle of \theta =27^{\circ}

mass of second child m_1=27 kg

distance of second child from tree is r_2=2.1 m

Weight of first child=m_1g=431.2 kg

Weight of second child=m_2g=264.6 kg

Torque of first child weight=m_1g\cos \theta \cdot r_1

T_1=44\times 9.8\times \cos 27\times 1=384.202 N-m

Torque of second child weight=m_2g\cos \theta \cdot r_2

T_2=27\times 9.8\times \cos 27\times 2.1=495.096 N-m

Net torque T_{net}=T_1+T_2=384.202+495.096=879.29 N-m
