If you are using a long-handled wrench to loosen a nut from a bolt by rotating the nut in a counterclockwise fashion, the nut is more likely (easier) to turn if you apply a force _________________ (pick a Letter) a. As close to the nut as possible. b. As far away from the nut as possible. c. Really doesn’t matter where the force is applied...the same torque is generated regardless. d. Push down directly on top of the nut at an angle of 90 degrees.
