document.write( "Question 1013086: a spanner of length 0.2m is used to loosen a wheel nut of a car. if the torque produced by the spanner is 100nm what is the maximum force applied at the end to loosen the nut \n" ); document.write( "
Algebra.Com's Answer #629333 by fractalier(6550)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Torque = Force x distance x sin(theta) \n" ); document.write( "Force is maximized when applied at 90 degrees to the spanner... \n" ); document.write( "Here then, F = tau/distance = 100 N*m / .2 m = 500 N \n" ); document.write( " |
