Question

Define moment of force. Write the SI unit.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of force :-

Moment of force (or torque) is equal to the product of magnitude of the force and the perpendicular distance of the line of action of the force from the axis of rotation.

Moment of force about the axis passing through the point O :-

=> Force × Perpendicular distance of force from the point O

=> F × OP

Unit of moment of force :-

=> Unit of force × Unit of distance

=> newton × metre [S.I unit]

=> dyne × cm [C.G.S unit]
