Question

39. Find the moment of force of 5 N about an axis of rotation at a distance of 20 cm from the force,
[2 marks]​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) Moment of force means torque.

τ=force×⊥distance

τ=20×0.5

τ=10N−m

(2) τ=force×distance

τ=5×

τ=0.5N−m

Answer 2

Explanation:

(1) Moment of force means torque.

τ=force×⊥distance

τ=20×0.5

τ=10N−m

(2) τ=force×distance

τ=5×
