When a force of 10 N is applied about the axis of rotation of a body , it produces a torque of 5 N m. Find the distance of the point of application of the force from the axis of rotation.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given
Torque `(tau)= 5 N` m
Force (F) = 10 N
Distance (r) = ?
`tau = F xx r`
`:. r = (tau)/(F) = (5 n m )/(10 N)= 0.5 m`
