Question

A baseball of mass m = 0.155 kg is suspended vertically from a tree by a string of length L = 1.1 m and negligible
mass. Take z as the upward vertical direction. A short-duration force F = Fyj + Fzk is applied to the baseball by a bat, momentarily
creating a torque τ about the top of the string.

Part (e) In order to obtain a torque of τ = (11.5 N˙m)j, what must the value of the y-component of the force, Fy, be, in newtons?
Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression.
