Question

Diffe difference between moment of force and moment of couple

Answer 1

Answer:

A couple consists of two equal and opposite forces acting with two different but parallel lines of action. Each force has its own moment. Moment of a force is dependent on the distance from the pivot and the magnitude of the force while the moment of a couple is the net effect of the two moments of the forces.

hope it helps!!

Answer 2

Answer:

Moment of force :1. It is the measuring turning effect of a force about a point        2. It is dependent on distance from the pivot and magnitude of the force              Moment of couple : It is the net effected of the two moments of the forces           moment of force = force * perpendicular distance from the point to force

Moment of couple = magnitude of force *  perpendicular distance between the forces
