Problem

a. (i) Show that the magnitude of torque τ\tau produced by a force FF acting at a point PP at a distance rr from an axis and making an angle θ\theta with r\mathbf r is τ=Frsin⁡θ\tau = F r \sin \theta. b. (ii) A force of 50 N acts at a point 0.20 m from an axis and produces a torque of 5.0 N m. Calculate the two possible values of θ\theta.
