What torque would be generated if a 20.6-cm long wrench were used, instead, and the force were applied in the same way? N-m

Explanation / Answer

here,

for length , l1 = 18.3 cm , torque , t1 = 5.2 N.m

for length , l2 = 20.6 cm , let the torque be t2

equating the forces

t1/l1 = t2/l2

5.2/18.3 = t2 /20.6

solving for t2

t2 = 5.85 N.m

the torque generated is 5.85 N.m
