Question

Write down the factors on which moment depends upon ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

• The size of a force
• The perpendicular distance from the pivot the line of action of force

Explanation:

Factors that affect the moment of a force are;

• The size of a force
• The perpendicular distance from the pivot the line of action of force

The magnitude of force applied is directly proportional to the moment of force in that for a perpendicular distance d, increased in force applied will result to a higher moment of force. When the perpendicular distance from the pivot is decreased while the force applied remains constant, the moment of force decreases.
