A door can just be opened with `10N` force on the handle of the door. The handle is at a distance of `50cm` from the hinges. Then, the torque applied on the door (in `Nm`) is

When a force of 10.0 N is exerted on the handle of a door, the door can be just opened. If the handle is a distance of 50 cm from the hinges find the torque applied on the door.

Why the handles of the doors are at maximum distance from the hinges?

To push open a door, a person applies a force of 75 N on the handle of the door, at an angle of 60^(@) from the normal to its plane. If the handle is located at a distance of 80 cm from its hinge, find the torque applied by him.

The locus of the door- handle, as the door opens.

Why do we place handles at maximum possible distance from the hinges in a door?

Handle of the door is always kept on other side (far side) of the hinge. Why?

The handle of a door is always found at one edge of the door which is located at a maximum possible distance away from hinges. In which direction will the torque act while the door opens inside the room?
