The turning effect of a force is known as the moment. It is the product of the force multiplied by the perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the pivot or point where the object will turn.
When undoing a nut fastened to a screw by hand one realises that the amount of force required is a lot greater than when undoing the same nut using a spanner. The spanner increases the distance between the fulcrum and the line of action of the force, thus for the same force a greater moment is obtained.
SMALL MOMENT
The distance from the fulcrum to the line of action of force is very small
LARGE MOMENT
The distance from the fulcrum to the line of action of force is large
