Answer:
As a matter of convention, an anticlockwise moment is taken as positive and a clockwise moment is taken as negative. The direction of a moment depends upon the axis of rotation with respect to which you are measuring the turning effect.

Answer:
As per the standard convention, movement in the anti-clockwise direction is taken as positive and movement in the clockwise direction is taken as negative.
Explanation:
Moments act about a point in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. The point chosen could be any point on the object, but the pivot - also known as the fulcrum - is usually chosen. The anticlockwise moment acts downward on the left, and the clockwise moment acts downwards on the right.
