The torque on the wrench.
Answer to Problem 7STP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The length of wrench,
The force applied on the end of wrench,
The angle at which force is applied,
Formula used:
The torque is given by,
Where F is the applied force, r is the distance of the point of application of force from the axis of rotation, and
Calculation:
Now, the angle between the distance and force will be,
Then, the torque on the wrench is,
Conclusion:
Thus, the torque on the wrench is
