Suppose you apply a force of 40 N to a 0.25-meter-long wrench attached to a bolt in a direction perpendicular to the bolt. Determine the magnitude of the torque when the force is applied at an angle of 135degrees to the wrench.

It is attached perpendicular to the bolt such that the force is applied at an angle of 135 degrees to the wrench. The formula for torque is given by :

[tex]\tau=r\times F[/tex]

[tex]\tau=rF\ sin\theta[/tex]

[tex]\tau=0.25\ m\times 40\ N\ sin(135)[/tex]

[tex]\tau=7.07\ N.m[/tex]

So, the magnitude of torque applied to the wrench is 7.07 N-m. Hence, this is the required solution.
