(choose chapter or problem)

A torque wrench is used to tighten the nut on a bolt. If the dial indicates that a torque of \(60 \mathrm{lb} \cdot \mathrm{ft}\) is applied when the bolt is fully tightened, determine the force P acting at the handle and the distance s the needle moves along the scale. Assume only the portion AB of the beam distorts. The cross section is square having dimensions of 0.5 in. by 0.5 in. \(E=29\left(10^{3}\right) \mathrm{ksi}\).
