A student who never took any Physics, Engineering or Carpentry courses tried to put a shelf up. Unwisely, the student placed the shelf supports too close together and did not fasten the shelf to the supports. After putting a plant pot on the edge of the shelf, the shelf pivoted on one of the supports and crashed. If the pot weighs 4.62 kg and is placed at 19.7 cm away from the pivot point, how much torque was applied in the moment the shelf started to move? Assume the weight of the shelf is negligible. Include units in SI.
