If two forces of equal magnitude act on an object that is hinged at a pivot, the force acting farther from the pivot must produce the greater torque about the pivot. a) true b) false c) unable to decide without knowing the shape of the object

Ans(B) False

Explanation:

As we know that torque T given as

T = r x F

T= r F sinθ

θ=Angle by force with displacement vector r

F=Force

Therefore we can say that torque depends on the displacement r as well as on the force.

if the force and displacement are parallel then the torque will be zero.

Therefore the given statement is not true for all conditions.

Ans(B) False
