Physics Asked by user106306 on March 20, 2021
I need to calculate the torque of a line in 2D of length $L_0$.
We choose $0leq xleq L_0$, and then the pivot point is in $x=L_p$.
We have a force vectorial $F$ acting on the line.
For me, the torque is
$$(-sintheta,costheta)cdotint_0^{L_0}F(x)|x-L_p|dx$$
but in the book appears
$$(-sintheta,costheta)cdotint_0^{L_0}F(x)(x-L_p)dx$$
Why is this difference?
$theta$ is the slope of the line.
