Question

the moment of a force of 10 Nabout a fixed point O is 5 m. calculate the distance of the point O from the line of action of the force.​

Answer 1

ANSWER:   0.5

EXPLAINATION:

Moment of force =10 m

Fixed point is at 5 N m

we know,

distance =moment/force

=5 N m/10 N

= 1/2 m

= 0.5 m

I hope it will help you!!!

Pls mark me brainliest

Answer 2

Answer :-

• Distance of the point O from the line of action of the force is 0.5 m

Explanation :-

${ \bigstar{ \underline{ \underline{According \: to \: the \: question,}}}}$

${ \boxed{ \boxed{ \red{ \tiny{\sf{ \: Moment \: of \: force = force \times perpendicular \: distance \: of \: force \: from \: point \: O }}}}}}$

$\longmapsto\sf \: Moment \: of \: Force = f \times r \\ \\ \longmapsto\sf \:5Nm = 10 \times r \\ \\ \longmapsto\sf \:r = \cancel\dfrac{5}{10} \\ \\ \longmapsto{ \blue{ \underline{ \boxed{\sf {\:r = 0.5}}}}}$

Hence, distance of the point O from the line of action of the force is 0.5 m.
