which of the following is the correct equation for torque?
$\tau = f - r$
$\tau = f cdot r$
$\tau = f + r$
$\tau = \frac{f}{r}$
formula 1 point
a force of 9 is being applied to a door a distance 0 away from it hinges. what is the torque the door experiences?
answer
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for torque

Torque \(\tau\) is given by the formula \(\tau = F\times r\) (where \(F\) is the force applied and \(r\) is the distance from the pivot point).

Step2: Substitute the given values into the formula

Given \(F = 9\) and \(r=0\). Substituting into \(\tau = F\times r\), we get \(\tau=9\times0\).

Step3: Calculate the value

\(9\times0 = 0\)

Answer:

\(0\)
