Question

When a force is applied at the axis of rotation the torque produced is

Answer 1

Answer:

torque is a force applied to a point on an object about the axis of rotation. The size of a torque depends on (1) the size of the force applied and (2) its perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation (which depends both on the direction of the force plus its physical distance from the axis of rotation).

Answer 2

Torque produced

= magnitude of force × perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation
