Answer 1

The torque is 15 N·m

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The length of the torque wrench = 0.5 m

The force applied on the torque wrench = 30 N

The torque at the end of the torque wrench is equal to the applied force multiplied by the perpendicular distance from the point of application of the force to the end of the torque wrench

Therefore;

Torque = The force applied on the torque wrench handle × The length of the torque wrench

Torque = 30 N × 0.5 m = 15 N·m

Torque = 15 N·m.
