The tune-up specifications of a car call for the spark plugs to be tightened to a torque of 42 N m. You plan to tighten the plugs by pulling on the end of a 20 cm long wrench. Because of the cramped psace under the hood, you’ll need to pull at an angle of 130 degrees with respet to the wrench shaft. With what force must you pull?

A 3.0-m rod is pivoted about its left end. A force of 6.0 N is applied perpendicular to the rod at a distance of 1.2 m from the pivot
causing a counter clockwise torque, and a force of 5.2 N is applied at the end of the rod 3.0 m from the pivot. The 5.2 N is at an angle of
30° to the rod and causes a clockwise torque. What is the net torque about the pivot?
