*9. CD mmh A rod is lying on the top of a table. One end of the rod is hinged to the table so that the rod can rotate freely on the tabletop. Two forces, both parallel to the tabletop, act on the rod at the same place. One force is directed perpendicular to the rod and has a magnitude of 38.0 N. The second force has a magnitude of 55.0 N and is directed at an angle 0 with respect to the rod. If the sum of the torques due to the two forces is zero, what must be the angle 0?

One method of pitching a softball is called the wind-mill delivery method, in which the pitchers arm rotates through approximately 360 in a vertical plane before the 198-gram ball is released at the lowest point of the circular motion.
