Here’s the solution for the problem:
| Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | \( \text{Torque} = r \cdot F \cdot \sin(\theta) \) | The torque due to a force is calculated using the perpendicular component of the force. Here, \(r\) is the distance from the pivot, \(F\) is the force, and \(\theta\) is the angle between the force and the beam. |
| 2 | \( r = 2 \, \text{m}, \quad F = 200 \, \text{N}, \quad \theta = 30^\circ \) | Values given in the problem include the length of the beam (radius to point of force) and the force applied. |
| 3 | \( \text{Torque}_{F} = 2 \, \text{m} \cdot 200 \, \text{N} \cdot \sin(30^\circ) \) | Calculate the torque produced by the applied force. The sine of 30 degrees accounts for the perpendicular component of the force. |
| 4 | \( \text{Torque}_{F} = 2 \, \text{m} \cdot 200 \, \text{N} \cdot 0.5 = 200 \, \text{N} \cdot \text{m} \) | Simplify the calculation using \(\sin(30^\circ) = 0.5\). |
| 5 | \( \text{Torque}_{\text{gravity}} = -10 \, \text{kg} \cdot 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \cdot 1 \, \text{m} \) | Calculate the torque due to gravity. The weight acts downward at the center of the beam, which is 1 meter from the pivot. |
| 6 | \( \text{Torque}_{\text{gravity}} = -98 \, \text{N} \cdot \text{m} \) | The torque is negative since it causes clockwise rotation. |
| 7 | \( \text{Net Torque} = 200 \, \text{N} \cdot \text{m} – 98 \, \text{N} \cdot \text{m} \) | Sum the torques due to the applied force and gravity to find the net torque. |
| 8 | \( \text{Net Torque} = 102 \, \text{N} \cdot \text{m} \) | Subtract to find the net torque, considering the directions. Positive sign indicates counterclockwise torque. |
The correct answer is (d) 102 N•m.

Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
