Consider the image shown. Note that the forces in (b) and (d) make an angle of 45° with the wrench. The force in (a) is applied halfway along the length of the wrench. Assume that the wrenches and the magnitude of the force F are identical.
Select the option that correctly orders the magnitudes of the torques exerted on the bolts in (a) through (d) from least to greatest.
b=d<a<c
a<b=d<c
b<d<c<a
a<b<d<c
