Problem

A bolt is located

0.40\,\text{m}

from the point where a

25\,\text{N}

force is applied. If the force acts at an angle of

60^{\circ}

to the bolt handle, what is the magnitude of the torque about the bolt? (a)

10\,\text{N}\cdot\text{m}

(b)

8.7\,\text{N}\cdot\text{m}

(c)

5.0\,\text{N}\cdot\text{m}

(d)

7.5\,\text{N}\cdot\text{m}
