AP Physics 1 Torque, Angular Momentum Problems 1. In a hurry to catch a cab, you rush through a frictionless swinging door and onto the sidewalk. The force you exerted on the door was 50.0 N, applied perpendicular to the plane of the door. The door is 1.00 m wide. Assuming that you pushed the door at its edge, what was the torque on the swinging door (taking the hinge as the pivot point)? 1.00 m 2. What is the distance x in the figure below? 6 50.0 N
