Question: What is the torque produced by a force applied at a distance?

Options:

1. τ = rF sin(θ)
2. τ = rF cos(θ)
3. τ = F/r
4. τ = F + r

Correct Answer: τ = rF sin(θ)

Solution:

The torque produced by a force applied at a distance from the pivot point is given by τ = rF sin(θ), where θ is the angle between the force and the lever arm.
