g 95 N force exerted at the end of a 0.50 m long torque wrench gives rise to a torque of 15 N • m. What is the angle (assumed to be less than 90°) between the wrench handle and the direction of the applied force?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Angle = 18.41°

Explanation:

Torque = F•r•sin θ

where;

F = force

r = distance from the rotation point

θ = the angle between the force and the radius vector.

We are given;

Torque = 15 N.m

F = 95 N

r = 0.5 m

Thus, plugging in the relevant values ;

15 = 95 × 0.5 × sin θ

sin θ = 15/(95 × 0.5)

sin θ = 0.3158

θ = sin^(-1)0.3158

θ = 18.41°
