Moment
Turning effect produced by a force around a fulcrum is called moment.
Direction of movement is either clock wise or anticlockwise.
8
Law of moment
When an object is balanced (in equilibrium) the sum of the clockwise moments is equal to the sum of the anticlockwise moments. Force 1 x its distance from pivot = Force 2 x distance from the pivot.
