Homework Statement
Is the object in equilibrium? To answer that question calculate the total torque about a point where 100 N force is applied. (x=1.95 m. y=1.06 m, F1=38 N, F2=52 N.)
Homework Equations
T=Fr sin(theta)
The Attempt at a Solution
I used the above equation to find the T1 and T2 but it is telling me I am wrong.
T1=38*1.95m T2=52*1.06
T1=74.1 N*m T2=55.12 N*m
Then I added these two torques for the net torque and got 129.22 N*m but it keeps coming up wrong. Am I doing something wrong?
