A simple pendulum consists of a small object of mass 2.5 kg hangingat the end of a 2.0 m long light string that is connected to apivot point.
(a) Calculate the magnitude of the torque (due to the force ofgravity) about this pivot point when the string makes a 6.5° anglewith the vertical.
_______ N·m
(b) Does the torque increase or decrease as the angleincrease?
(c)Explain your answer.
