Two children push on opposite sides of a door during play. Both push horizontally and perpendicular to the door. One child pushes with a force of 17.5 N at a distance of 0.600 m from the hinges, and the second child pushes at a distance of 0.450 m. What force must the second child exert to keep the door from moving?

Torque

Torque is the rotational equivalent of linear force in physics and mechanics. Based on the course of study, it is also known as the moment of force, rotational force, or turning effect.

Two children playing on a frictionless garden gate invent a new game called "gate." The idea is that they will get on opposite sides of the gate and each push such that the gate does not move. If they both push horizontally and perpendicular to the gate and one child pushes with a force of 180 N at a distance of 0.580 m from the hinges, determine the force the second child must exert in order to keep the gate from moving if she pushes at a distance of 0.280 m from the hinges.
Assume a person bends forward to lift a load "with his back" as shown in Figure (a). The spine pivots mainly at the fifth lumbar vertebra, with the principal supporting force provided by the erector spinalis muscle in the back. To see the magnitude of the forces involved, consider the model shown in Figure (b) for a person bending forward to lift a W, = 205-N object. The spine and upper body are represented as a uniform horizontal rod of weight W, = 320 N, pivoted at the base of the spine. The erector spinalis muscle, attached at a point two-thirds of the way up the spine, maintains the position of the back. The angle between the spine and this muscle is 0 = 10.5°.
