A non-uniform beam extends horizontally from x = 0 m to x = 6.5 m. The linear mass density of the beam, as a function of x, is given by λ(x) = 17 - 3 (x / 6.5) (kg/m). Calculate the gravitational torque on the beam about its left end, in N m. Use g = 10 m/s2. Make your answer a positive number. (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
