Why do we prefer a wrench with long arm to open ascrew |
|
Answer» This is the case of rotational motion so the torque is the applying force. And torque =F*r so by increasing radius of rotational motion we can increase torque and to increase radius we need a longer wrench. So longer wrench increases force (torque) and produce more turning effect and screw will easily open. As one knowsTORQUE = R cross F=> F = torque/RAs torque required to open a nut is constant. So F is inversely proportional to R.Hence if load arm is long we require less force to open.if there is any better ans let me know Eisjsj the c chij tu UC fb |
