Q. T=235+980d T=235+980 d \newlineThe torque, T T , in newton-meters, on a diving board with a 100100 kilogram weight placed d d meters from the diving board's fulcrum is given by the equation. How much torque in newton-meters is on the diving board when the weight is placed at the fulcrum?
  1. Identify Equation and Variables: Identify the given equation and the variables.\newlineThe given equation is T=235+980dT = 235 + 980d, where TT is the torque in newton-meters and dd is the distance in meters from the diving board's fulcrum.
  2. Determine Value of dd: Determine the value of dd when the weight is placed at the fulcrum.\newlineWhen the weight is placed at the fulcrum, the distance dd is 00 meters.
  3. Substitute Value of dd: Substitute the value of dd into the equation to find the torque.\newlineSubstitute d=0d = 0 into the equation T=235+980dT = 235 + 980d.\newlineT=235+980(0)T = 235 + 980(0)\newlineT=235+0T = 235 + 0\newlineT=235T = 235
