Question

a force of 200 N acts on a rigid body such that the perpendicular distance between the force and the turning point is 50 cm. calculate the moment of force

Answer 1

your answer is ---

moment = force × perpendicular distance

=> moment = 200 × 0.5

=> moment = 100 Nm

Answer 2

The moment of force is calculated as 100Nm.

Given:

Force = 200N

It acts on a rigid body.

Perpendicular distance from turning point = 50m

To find:

Moment of Force

Solution:

Moment of force is given by the formula:

Force x Perpendicular Distance

Thus, we can find the MoF: 200 x 0.5 = 100Nm

So, the moment of force comes out to be 100Nm.
