Torque
2
Moment of a force
The quantity which tells us about the turning effect of a force is its moment.
3
Moment dependency
The moment of a force depends on two quantities:
■ the magnitude of the force (the bigger the force, the greater its moment)
■■ the perpendicular distance of the force from the pivot (the further the force acts from the pivot, the greater its moment).
