(c) Torque = Force Hence for a given applied force, torque or true tendency of rotation will be high for large value of |
perpendicular distance of line of action of force from the axis of rotation (d)
. If distance 
is smaller, then greater force is required to cause the same torque, hence it is harder to open or shut down the door by applying a force near the hinge
