A simple pendulum consists of a small object of mass 3.6 kg hanging at the end of a 2.0-m-long light string that is connected to a pivot point. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the torque (due to the force of gravity) about this pivot point
(a) Calculate the magnitude of the torque (due to the force of gravity) about this pivot point when the string makes a 3.5° angle with the vertical.
_____N · m
(b) Does the torque increase or decrease as the angle increase? why?
