Question:
A metal bar is in the xy-plane with one end of the bar at the origin. A force F = (7.00 N)î + (–3.00 N)ĵ is applied to the bar at the point x = 3.00 m, y = 4.00 m.
(a) In terms of unit vectors î and ĵ, what is the position vector for the point where the force is applied?
(b) What are the magnitude and direction of the torque with respect to the origin produced by F?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
