Question

Calculate the net torque (magnitude and direction) on the beam in the figure below about the following axes.

A horizontal beam of length 4.0 m is shown. The left end of the beam is labeled O and the center of the beam is labeled C. Three vectors act on the beam.

A vector of magnitude 30 N originates from the left end of the beam and points down and to the left making a 45° angle with the horizontal.
A vector of magnitude 25 N originates from the center of the beam at a distance of 2.0 m from the left end and points up and to the right making an angle of 30° with the vertical.
A vector of magnitude 10 N originates from the right end of the beam and points down and to the right making an angle of 20° from the horizontal.

(a) an axis through O perpendicular to the page

magnitude	N · m
direction	---Select--- clockwise counterclockwise

(b) an axis through C perpendicular to the page

magnitude	N · m
direction	---Select--- counterclockwise clockwise
