Homework Statement
Ok, so in a lab I was preforming Izod impact tests on notched polymer specimens.
To complete my calculations I need to determine the correct cross-sectional area to use (Which is baffling me as the simple things usually do)
The sample was loaded with the notch facing...

Thank you for the tip! You are very helpful!
What about if the point of application of the force is away from where you want to calculate the force? For example a spanner moving a nut... Would it have no effect or would I use the entire length of the spanner up to the centre of the nut?
Ok so I was completely off the mark on that one!
You have used a radius perpendicular to the application point of the torque.
And you have resolved the torque for both forces and added them...
