Answer» Boy has to apply more force at point B as compared to point A, because point B is at least distance from the hinge of the door while point A is at maximum distance from hinge of the door. Opening of door applies a moment, which is. given by, M = F × perpendicular distance F ∝ \(\frac{1}{distance}\) More is the distance from the axis of rotation less will be the force. |
