-Which of the following pairs of variables exhibits an inverse relationship?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In mechanics, both pairs exhibit an inverse relationship. For the force and the force arm, this is described by the principle of moments (torque = force x distance), where increasing the distance (force arm) can result in a decrease in the force needed to achieve the same torque. Similarly, for resistance and the resistance arm, a longer resistance arm means less force is needed to overcome the resistance, indicating an inverse relationship.
