Question

2. A fish has been hooked and is pulling on the line as shown in the figure below. If the pole makes an angle of 25° with the horizontal, the distance between the point where the line is attached to the pole and the anglers hand is L = 1.75 m, and the fish pulls on the line such that the tension in the line is T = 154 N at an angle 35.0° below the horizontal, determine the magnitude of the torque exerted by the fish about an axis perpendicular to the page and passing through the angler's hand.

_________________N · m

Explanation / Answer

Torque = T*L*sin(60) = 154*1.75*sin(60) = 233.393 Nm
