---### Understanding Torque and Force Application#### Problem Statement:A spanner generates 7 N·m of torque. It has a length of 0.8 m. Assume the force is perpendicular to the wrench handle.##### Questions:a) How much force is needed to generate this torque, given the length above?b) If the force value was kept the same, but the length was increased to 1.2 m, how much torque is generated?---#### Explanation:- **Torque (τ):** A measure of the force causing an object to rotate. The formula is τ = Force × Distance (perpendicular distance from the pivot point).- **Given Details:** - Torque (τ) = 7 N·m - Length of wrench (L) = 0.8 m#### Calculations:- **(a) Calculating Force:** \[ \text{Force} = \frac{\text{Torque}}{\text{Length}} = \frac{7 \, \text{N·m}}{0.8 \, \text{m}} = 8.75 \, \text{N} \]- **(b) Calculating New Torque with Increased Length:** - New length = 1.2 m - Torque (τ') = Force × New Length \[ \text{Torque (τ')} = 8.75 \, \text{N} \times 1.2 \, \text{m} = 10.5 \, \text{N·m} \]#### Visual Description:The image includes a simple illustration of a spanner, demonstrating the concept of torque visually in relation to the handle length. The spanner is depicted without specific measurements or labels.This scenario demonstrates the relationship between torque, force, and distance, emphasizing the calculation aspects necessary for understanding basic physics related to rotational mechanics.
