Magnitude of displacement = $\sqrt{640^2 + 340^2}$

Adding the squares gives displacement = $\sqrt{525,200}$

Displacement = $\sqrt{525,200}$ ≈ 724.7m

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{-10}+\dfrac{1}{38}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{-19+5}{190}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{-14}{190}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow u=\dfrac{190}{-14}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow u=13.6cm$

The vector position of an object is given by r what is the torque acting on the object about the origin when a force f = (−12.5i

attashe74 [19]

Let the vector position of the object in the (x-y) plane be
$\vec{r} = x \hat{i} + y \hat{j}$

The applied force is
$\vec{f} = -12.5 \hat{i}
$

By definition, the applied torque is
$\vec{T} = \vec{r} \times \vec{f} = (x\hat{i} + y\hat{j}) \times (-12.5y \hat{i}) = 12.5\hat{k}$

Answer: $12.5y \, \hat{k}$
