Module 2. Physics

A force 10 N is placed 2 Meters from a pivot point, what is the moment?

  • 20Nm.
  • 40Nm.
  • 80Nm.

Explanation

A moment equals force times the perpendicular distance from the pivot. Here 10 N acting 2 m from the pivot gives 10 x 2 = 20 Nm. The other answers do not follow from these figures.
