To give solution to the exercise we must use the concepts of Torque, Vector magnitude and vector direction of the forces.
For the given problem we have to


In this way the torque acting on the particle as a function of distance and time is,

The net torque acting on the particle is



PART B) The direction of the torque is given by,




Therefore the torque direction is 48.04° below the x axis.

Explanation:
The gravity from the person's hand is weaker than the gravity from the pull of the earth
Answer:
• 36.4 kg of coal.
• 80 pounds of coal.
Explanation:
Using proportionality constant,
Mass of coal = 1,000,000/27,500,000 btus/metric ton
= 0.0364 metric tons of coal
Mass of coal = 1,000,000/25,000,000 btus/ton
= 0.04 tons of coal.
Converting metric tons to kilogram,
1 metric ton = 1000kg,
0.0364 metric ton;
= 36.4 kg of coal.
Converting tons to pounds,
1 ton = 2000 pounds,
0.04 metric ton;
= 80 pounds of coal.
