In Fig. 1.17 a roller of diameter 0.4m is raised on the pavement XY by forces F_1 and F_2 each of magnitude 10N. Compare the torques produced by the two forces. |

Answer» SOLUTION :GIVEN `F_1=F_2=10N` Perpendicular DISTANCE of point of rotation X from the force `F_1` is `d_1=0.4 m` while that of force `F_2` is `d_2=1/2 TIMES 0.4m=0.2m` `("Torque PR oduced by force" F_1)/ ("Torque pr oduced by force" F_2)= (F_1 times d_1)/(F_2 times d_2)` `=(10 N times 0.4 m)/ (10 N times 0.2m )=2/1` |
