Answer:
0.18 Nm
Explanation:
Note: Torque is independent of the mass of a body.
From the question,
T = F×d.......................Equation 1
Where T = Torque, F = force applied to the wrench, d = length of the wrench.
Given: F = 12 N, d = 15 cm = 0.015 m
Substitute into equation 1
T = 12(0.015)
T = 0.18 Nm.
Hence the torque applied is 0.18 Nm
