Torque = Distance * Force

The Attempt at a Solution



I have a problem with the second question in the problem. What does it mean?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I think it's talking about the force applied on the points of the bolt.That is,it's distance must be the radius and we know the torque.So we can find the force.
