mhsbandar Alright, so this question doesn’t really make sense. At first, it talks about James having 42 pink bikes, and each one has tires that spin at 15 m/s and complete one full rotation per second. Then it says the front wheel is double the area of the bike frame, but it never actually gives the size of the frame or the wheel.
Then it suddenly asks for the torque of the handlebars based on James being 14 years younger than his cousin John, who’s at least 14 years older than James. That part just confirms John is 14 years older—it doesn’t actually help with calculating torque.
And even if we ignore the age thing, we still can’t calculate torque because we’re not told how much force is being applied to the handlebars or how long the handlebars are. Since torque = force × distance, and we don’t have either of those, we can’t work it out.
So in the end, the question gives random details that don’t help, and there's not enough actual information to calculate the torque. It’s basically just a nonsense question.
