A person applies a force of 50 pounds to a wrench with a length of 1.5 feet calculate the torque produce?

To calculate torque, you need to multiply the force applied by the length of the wrench.

Torque = Force x Length

Torque = 50 pounds x 1.5 feet
Torque = 75 pound-feet

Therefore, the torque produced by applying a force of 50 pounds to a wrench with a length of 1.5 feet is 75 pound-feet.

Step 1: Convert length to feet
1.5 feet = 1.5 - 12 = 18 inches

Step 2: Calculate torque
Torque = Force x Distance
Torque = 50 pounds x 18 inches

Step 3: Convert torque to foot-pounds
1 foot-pound = 12 inch-pounds
Torque = 50 pounds x 18 inches / 12 inch-pounds/foot-pound
Torque = 75 foot-pounds

Therefore, the torque produced by the force is 75 foot-pounds.
