Question

. Moment of force = force x perpendicular distance of force - from the pivoted point.

Answer 1

yes it is right

but force x perpendicular distance between the body and the pivoted point

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

   

= F x d

Perpendicular distance from pivot to force d = 0.50 m. This is a clockwise moment. The force will rotate the object in a clockwise direction about the pivot. It is important to remember that the distance d is the perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force (see diagram).
