Question

What will be moment of force of 5 N applied on a body at a distance of 20 cm from a pivoted point. please tell me ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The moment of force is calculated as:

Force x (perpendicular distance between the point of application of force and axis of rotation)

But the unit should of the same system, SI or CGS

Here, Force = 10 N

    Distance = 30/100 = 0.3 m

Hence, Moment of force = 10x0.3 Nm

                                        = 3 Nm
