A rod is lying on the top of a table. One end of the rod is hinged to the table so that the rod can rotate freely on the table top. Two forces, both parallel to the table top, act on the rod at the same place. One force is directed perpendicular to the rod and has a magnitude of 33 N. The second force has a magnitude of 65 N and is directed at an angle with respect to the rod. If the sum of the torques due to the two forces is zero, what must be the angle 0? h

A door has a width of 1 m. The hinge attaches the door on the left. Andrea pushes on the right end of the door with a force of 30 N at angle θ=30∘θ=30∘. Bob pushes on the door in the opposite direction of Andrea. He applies a force of 30N30N perpendicular to the door at the midpoint of the door’s width. Andrea applies a magnitude of torque of ______nm to the door.
When opening a door, you push on it perpendicularly with a force of 62.6 N at a distance of 0.792m from the hinges. What torque are you exerting relative to the hinges? (Does it matter if you push at the same height as the hinges?)
The figure shows five torques applied to a stick. Each stick shown has the same length and is pivoted around the dot. Rank, from least to greatest, the magnitude of torque applied to the stick in each case. If any torques are equal in magnitude, note this in your ranking.
A force of F (2.00i+3.00j) N is applied to a rigid object that is pivoted about a fixed axis aligned along the z coordinate axis. The force is applied at a point located at r(4.00i+5.00j) m relative to the axis. Find the torque T applied to the object.
(a) A woman opens a 1.50 m wide door by pushing on it with a force of 44.5 N applied at the center of the door, at an angle perpendicular to the door's surface. What magnitude of torque (in N · m) is applied about an axis through the hinges? N. m (b) A second person opens the same door, using the same force, again directed perpendicular to the surface, but now the force is applied at the edge of the door.

A 2.00-m-long, 500 kg steel uniform beam extends horizontally from the point where it has been bolted to the framework of a new building under construction. A 70 kg construction worker stands at the far end of the beam. What is the magnitude of the torque about the bolt due to the worker and the weight of the beam?
D1 Sign D2 A 2.40kg pole is attached to a wall with a hinge as shown. A 5.50kg sign is suspended at the other end of a pole, where D2 = 3.50m. A cable attached to the wall forms an angle a = 14.0° with the wall, and is attached to the pole a distance D = 1.60m from the hinge. Assume the origin is at the hinge. What is the torque on the pole due to the weight of the sign? 183 Nm
As a swimmer pulls his arm through the water, various muscles exert forces on the upper arm. The figure below shows a force F exerted on the humerus (upper arm bone) by the pectoral muscle. The muscle is connected to the bone d = 7.10 cm from the center point O of the shoulder joint. Find the magnitude of F, if this force's torque on the arm provides half of the total torque balancing the torque produced by the water pushing against the hand. (Let Fhand = 108 and D = 33.0 cm. ) please solve thank you
You open a door by applying a force 1/2 m away from the hinge. The torque you applied was 100 N⋅m. However, the angle at which you pushed the door was 30 degrees from the face of the door. What amount of force did you apply? Please answer in units of newtons and your answer should be exact.

Two children hang by their hands from the same tree branch. The branch is straight, and grows out from the tree trunk at an angle of 27.0° above the horizontal. One child, with a mass of 48.0 kg, is hanging 1.05 m along the branch from the tree trunk. The other child, with a mass of 27.0 kg, is hanging 2.25 m from the tree trunk. What is the magnitude of the net torque exerted on the branch by the children? Assume that the axis is located where the branch joins the tree trunk and is perpendicular to the plane formed by the branch and the trunk. Number i The Way Units -12. Kana
