Answer:-
2 N (newton)
++++++++++++++++++++++
To Find :-
The Minimum Force applied on the rim.
Given :-
- Diameter of the wheel :- 2 m
- Moment of force or torque = 2 N m
We know :-
Concept :-
We know that a object rotate at a pivoted point , and in the this case the wheel rotate around the radius the Circle , but the diameter of the Circle is given , so by using the Formula for Radius of a circle , we can find the required value.
Given , the diameter is 2 m , so substituting the given value in the formula , we get :-
- RADIUS = 1 m
Now by this information, we can find the Force applied on the rim.
Solution :-
Given :-
Perpendicular Distance = 1 m
Moment of Force or Torque = 2 N m
Let the Force applied be F N.
Now ,
By using the formula for Torque and substituting the values in it , we get :-
TORQUE = FORCE × PERPENDICULAR DISTANCE
2 = F × 1
