Aperson wants to use a lever to lift a dumpster weighing 4200 n.4200 n. the lever is arranged so that it is approximately horizontal and makes contact below the dumpster's center of mass at a distance of 0.30 m0.30 m from the lever's pivot. about how much torque will the dumpster exert on the lever?

1260 Nm

Explanation:

As one end of the lever makes contact at the point right below the dumpster center of mass and has a distance of 0.3 m to the lever pivot point, plus the fact that the level is also approximately horizontal, we can safely assume that the dumpster gravity is directly perpendicular to the level.

This would make the torque caused by the dumpster gravity on the level is

T = LF = 4200*0.3 = 1260 Nm

find the surface area of the sphere to the nearest square unit. use a calculator.

a. 254 in.2

b. 64 in.2

c. 127 in.2

d. 1,018 in.2
