On a playground, there is a merry-go-round. In order to get it moving, Bonnie applies a force of 41 N . The merry-go-round measures 8.7 m from the axis of rotation to the edge where Bonnie applies her force. Assuming she applies her force perpendicularly to a line drawn from the axis of rotation, what is the magnitude
\tau of the torque Bonnie imparts to the merry-go-round?
\tau =1,N*m
