Question

Two separate forces are applied to the segment producing two separate torques. The magnitude of Torque A is equal to 100 Nm and the magnitude of Torque B is equal to 125 Nm. Taking into consideration the direction of both Torque A and Torque B, what is the resultant net torque when you sum the torques and which direction will the segment rotate?

A. Net torque = +25 Nm; Direction of rotation = clockwise

B. Net torque = + 25 Nm; Direction of rotation = counterclockwise

C. Net torque = - 25 Nm; Direction of rotation = clockwise

D. Net torque = -25 Nm; Direction of rotation = counterclockwise
