Question:
A set of caliper brakes exerts a force on the rim of a bicycle wheel that creates a frictional force F of 40 N perpendicular to the radius of the wheel (see figure). Assuming the wheel has a radius of 33 cm, find the magnitude and direction of the torque about the axle of the wheel.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
