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 <u>4.62N-m</u>.
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.

Arrows represent vector quantities, which have both a magnitude (size) and a direction. For example on Earth, weight acts towards the planet's centre due to the effect of the gravitational field, and has a magnitude in Newtons (e.g. 10N). However, mass is a scalar quantity, meaning that it only has a magnitude - it's just the amount of stuff you have. It would be like an arrow without a direction, which of course is not possible (at least not in this universe...)
