The fishing pole in Figure P10.22 makes an angle of 20.0 with the horizontal. What is the torque exerted by the fish about an axis perpendicular to the page and passing through the anglers hand if the fish pulls on the fishing line with a force F=100N at an angle 37.0 below the horizontal? The force is applied at a point 2.00 m from the anglers hands. Figure P10.22
(a) When opening a door, you push on it perpendicularly with a force of 55.0 N at a distance of 0.850m from the hinges. What torque are you exerting relative to the hinges? (b) Does it matter if you push at the same height as the hinges?
Answer yes or no to the following questions. (a) Is it possible to calculate the torque acting on a rigid object without specifying an axis of rotation? (b) Is the torque independent of the location of the axis of rotation?
The Iron Cross When a gymnast weighing 750 N executes the iron cross as in Figure lN.91a, the primary muscles involved in supporting this position are the latissimus dorsi (lats") and the pectoralis major (pecs"). The rings exert an upward force on the aims and support the weight of the gymnast. The force exerted by the shoulder joint on the arm is labeled Fs, while the two muscles exert a total force Fw on the arm. Estimate the magnitude of the force Fw. Note that one ring supports half the weight of the gymnast, which is 375 N as indicated in Figure P8.91b. Assume that the force Fw acts at an angle of 45 below the horizontal at a distance of 4.0 cm from the shoulder joint In your estimate, take the distance from the shoulder joint to the hand to be L = 70 cm and ignore the weight of the arm.
•• A squirrel-proof bird feeder has a lever that closes to protect theseeds when a 0.42-kg squirrel sits on it, but not when a 0.077-kgbird perches there. (a) If the lever radius is 9.6 cm, what torquesdo the squirrel and the bird each exert on it? (b) The torque produced by the animal is balanced by a spring that applies a perpendicular force a distance of 3.5 cm from the axis of rotation. Ifthe squirrel must stretch the spring 2.5 cm in order to close thelever and protect the seeds, what should be the force constant ofthe spring

The figure shows a person's foot. In that figure, the Achilles tendon exerts a force of magnitude F = 720 N. What is the magnitude of the torque that this force produces about the ankle joint?
Figure A shows the ankle joint and the Achilles tendon attached to the heel at point P. The tendon exerts a force of magnitude F=720 N, as shown in figure B. Determine the torque (magnitude and direction) of this force about the ankle joint, which is located 0.036 m away from point P.

The chewing muscle, the masseter, is one of the strongest in the human body. It isattached to the mandible (lower jawbone) as shown in Figure P8.33a. The jawbone ispivoted about a socket just in front of the auditory canal. The forces acting on the jawboneare equivalent to those acting on the curved bar in Figure P8.33b.
My book has the answers as a) 10N b) 196N But I can't figure out the proper way to work it out. I figured you start by using torque and the weight of the board plus the forces of each support to make a equation for Fn1. Then once you solve for it go back and make a equation for Fn2. But I'm not getting the answers in my book when I do this.
