When tightening a bolt, you push perpendicularly on a wrench with a force of 165N at a distance of 0.140m from the center of the bolt. How much torque are you exerting relative to the center of the bolt?
A uniform horizontal strut weighs 400.0 N. One end of the strut is attached to a hinged support the wall and the other end of the strut is attached to a sign that weighs 200.0 N The strut is also supported by a cable attached between the end of the strut and the wall. Assuming that the entire weight of the sign is attached at the very end of the s find the tension in the cable and the force at the hinge of the strut.
