Reference no: EM13490617

A mechanic jacks up the front of a car to an angle of 8.0 degrees with the horizontal in order to change the front tires. The car is 3.05 m long and has a mass of 1130 kg. Gravitational force acts at the center of mass, which is located 1.12 m from the front end. The rear wheels are .40 m from the back end. Calculate the magnitude of the torque excerted by the jack.
