Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Figure 1** illustrates the operation of a garlic press. The device functions by holding the lower part steady while the upper handle is pushed down. This action crushes a garlic clove, forcing it through a perforated screen.
In the accompanying image, a hand is shown gripping and pressing the garlic press, with crushed garlic emerging from the screen. Below the image is a horizontal measurement scale in centimeters, labeled "Distance from pivot (cm)," ranging from 0 to 12.5 cm. This scale likely indicates the leverage or force applied at various distances from the pivot point.

Transcribed Image Text:**Part A**
If the user exerts a 10 N force on the upper handle, estimate the force on the clove.
**Express your answer with the appropriate units.**
Input box for force (\( F \)) with fields for "Value" and "Units".
