Homework Equations
Torque(n/m)=Force(N)*Length(L)
Basic Trigonometry
The Attempt at a Solution
The concept of torque is new to me, so I just need a push in the right direction here. lbs and ft are used so we are using non-metric? Should I convert them to metric? How do lbs convert to Newtons? One pound-force is 4.448222N right? Am I going in the right direction?
T=LF
Length=10ft
Force=250lbs
We can't just do LF without some trig, and this where I don't know where to start.
