τ = F * l	torque = Force x (perpendicular distance to fulcrum)
	cos 55 = adj / .036 .036 cos 55 = adj torque = (.036 cos 55) * 270 torque = -5.6 Nm
Torque HW 1	rigid objects in equilibrium
	SFx = 0 SFy = 0 Sτ = 0 F2 - F1 - 525 = 0 525N * 3.85m = 2021.25 Nm 2021.25 Nm = F1 * 1.3 m 1554.8 N = F1 F2 - 1554.8 - 525 = 0 F2 = 1029.8 N F1 = 1.5 e^3 N F2 = 1.0 e^3 N
