In the following system, what is the clockwise torque? https://media.glynlyon.com/g_ipc_2013/7/torque_example_6.gif

OpenStudy (samgrace):

There is no torque, each moment cancels on another (moment = force times perpendicular distance)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No it needs an answer, no torque was not an option.

OpenStudy (vincent-lyon.fr):

The clockwise torque is the one applied by the 600-newton force, because it tends to rotate the beam clockwise about its fulcrum.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

As you look at it, if the force on the right lever arm is down, this is clockwise component of torque.
