The world's narrowest street, which is located in a small Italian village, is only 43 cm wide. Suppose a fish with a mass of 1.6 kg is hung from a string attached to a stick. The stick, slightly longer than the street is wide, is placed horizontally across the narrow street with each end resting on a windowsill. The fish hangs a horizontal distance of 15 cm from the windowsill on the right. If the axis of rotation for the stick is taken to be the end farthest from the fish, what is the magnitude of the torque produced by the fish?
