Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
If a force a F acts on the farther end of the wrench, the torque due to it Fl where l is the length of wrench. The work done by this torque for one full turn is Fl*(2##\pi##)
For wrench A, l=10 cm, and for wrench B, l=20cm.
Therefore the ratio of work done is 0.5. But this is wrong.
I don't understand why they have given the radius of the nut. I haven't used this information and I have no idea about where to use this.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
