Question: The wrench below is being acted upon by two forces, F1 and F2. F1 has a magnitude of 65 N, is perpendicular to the wrench,

The wrench below is being acted upon by two forces, F1 and F2. F1 has a magnitude of 65 N, is perpendicular to the wrench, and is a distance r1 = 2 meters from the center of rotation. F2 has a magnitude of 105 N, is at an angle of 60 degrees to the wrench, and is a distance r2 = 5 meters from the center of rotation. Find the net torque on the wrench in Newton-meters. If the torque is out of the screen, it is positive. If it is into the screen, it is negative.


e = 60 deg r2 F2 r1 F1

e = 60 deg r2 F2 r1 F1
