Answer

Please see the work below.

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $\tau=rFsin(\theta)$ This can be rearranged as: $F=\frac{\tau}{rsin{\theta}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $F=\frac{35}{(0.24)sin(90)}=150N$ (b) As $F=\frac{\tau}{rsin(\theta)}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $F=\frac{35}{(0.24)sin(110)}=160N$
