Hey charmers, could someone please give me a crash course on magnitude and direction of torque / correct my mistakes? I feel like face-palming. A) x = 0.41m x cos(30) = 0.36m
B) T = F.r = (61kg x -9.81) x 0.36 = -212.5Nm Is the negative correct? So does that mean that it is in a clockwise direction?
