Question: If a 12 Nm torque is required to turn a wheel, and the wheel’s radius is 0.4 meters, what force must be applied to the edge of the wheel which is perpendicular the radius of the wheel?

Oak Farms uses tenant-days as its measure of activity; an animal housed in the kennel for one day is counted as one tenant-day. During December, the kennel budgeted for 3,750 tenant-days, but its actual level of activity was 3,700 tenant-days. The kennel has provided the following data concerning the formulas used in its budgeting and its actual results for December: Data used in budgeting:   Fixed element per month Variable element per tenant-day Revenue $ 0 $ 34.00 Wages and salaries $ 2,300 $ 7.80 Food and supplies 1,450 13.00 Facility expenses 8,300 4.50 Administrative expenses 6,300 0.30 Total expenses $ 18,350 $ 25.60 Actual results for December: Revenue $ 125,290 Wages and salaries $ 31,440 Food and supplies $ 48,515 Facility expenses $ 25,055 Administrative expenses $ 7,575 The activity variance for administrative expenses in December would be closest to:
