Question

Example 2 Calculate the force which will produce a moment
of 40 N m when the perpendicular distance between the point of
application of force and the pivot is 40 cm.​

Answer 1

Answer:

100N

Explanation:

force*perpendicular distance= moment of force

force*40/100=40

force= 40*100/40= 100 N

40 cm is divided by 100 to convert it into metres

since moment is in Nm
