When tightening a bolt, you push perpendicularly on a wrench with a force of 185 N at a distance of 0.11 m from the center of the bolt. How much torque are you exerting relative to the center of the bolt

Respuesta :

Trancescient

Explanation:

The torque exerted on the wrench is

[tex]\tau = Fd\sin{\theta} = Fd[/tex]

since the force is applied perpendicular to the wrench, in which sin90 = 1. The torque then is

[tex]\tau = (185\:\text{N})(0.11\:\text{m}) = 20.35\:\text{N-m}[/tex]
