Question

Calculate the net torque about point O for the two forces applied as in the figure below. The rod and both forces are in the plane of the page. Let F1=7.80N and F2=11.0N. Take counterclockwise torques to be positive.
A horizontal rod. Point O is marked at its left end. The rod is subjected to two forces. Force F subscript 1 acts vertically downward on the right end of the rod. Force F subscript 2 acts on a point of the rod 2.00 meters from its left end and 3.00 meters from its right end. Force F subscript 2 points upward and to the left making an angle of 30.0 degrees with the rod.
