Answer:
96.5 N
Explanation:
torque = 1.93 Nm
force = torque/distance
10cm = 0.1m
2cm = 0.02m
force = 1.93/0.1
force = 19.3 N
now, mechanical advantage (MA) = (distance from the applied force to the pivot point) divided by (distance from the load point to the pivot point)
MA = 0.1/0.02
MA = 5:1
therefore,
force exerted by weed = 19.3 x 5 = 96.5 N
