Question
Several math students are taking a break from their studies by visiting a playground. One student pushes the others on a merry-go-round. The diameter of the merry-go-round is 3.0 m, and the student pushes with a force of 50 N along the purple vector shown in the diagram. Merry-go-round showing applied force acting on an angle of 110�
What torque does the student apply?
At what angle would the student need to apply the force to achieve maximum torque?
If the student continues to push with a force of 50 N, what maximum torque could be applied?

If the student continues to push with a force of 50 N, what maximum torque could be applied?
Answers
I am not certain how the angle is applied...
torque=forceperpendiculartoRadii*Radius
so use this, and your drawing, to figure out the answers.
