1a. Is the following statement true or false? Based on convention, a positive torque is the one that causes clockwise rotation; a negative torque is the one that causes counterclockwise rotation.
b. Is the following statement true or false? For a nonzero force applied on a rod, its torque can be zero.
c. Is the following statement true or false? The moment arm for a force and the line of action for the same force will always be perpendicular.
d. Is the following statement true or false? In this experiment, we will be using the equation τ = F l , (equation 2 from lab manual), to calculate the torque of force. In this equation, l is the moment arm, which is defined as the length from the rod pivot to the point on the rod where the force is applied. Group of answer choices True False
e. Is the following statement true or false? An object with no net torque applied on it will NOT experience angular acceleration. Group of answer choices True False
f. Is the following statement true or false? Force is a vector, torque is a scalar. Group of answer choices True False
