Moment of force =............... × distance of force from the point of turning.
In Fig. a force F is applied in a direction passing through the pivoted point O of the body. Will the body rotate? Give reason to support your answer.

A tall building has wide foundations.
It is easier to turn the steering wheel of a large diameter than that of a small diameter. Given reason.
A body is acted upon by two forces of magnitude F but in opposite directions. State the effect of the force if both forces act at the same point of the body.
Two forces each of magnitude 10 N act vertically upwards and downwards respectively at the two ends A and B of a uniform rod of length 4 m which is pivoted at its midpoint O as shown in the figure. Determine the magnitude of the resultant moment of forces about the pivot O.

Classify the following amongst contact and non-contact forces.
normal reaction force,
Fig. shows a uniform meter scale weighing 100 N pivoted at its centre. Two weights of 500 N and 300 N are hung from the ruler as shown in fig.

(i) Calculate total clockwise and anticlockwise moments.
(ii) Calculate difference in clockwise moment and anticlockwise moment.
(iii) Calculate the distance from O where a 100 N weight should be suspended to balance the meter scale.
Clockwise moment produced by a force about a fulcrum is considered to be ______.
A person standing in front of a cliff fires a gun and hears its echo after 3 s. If the speed of sound in air is 336 ms−1.
- Calculate the distance of the person from the cliff.
- After moving a certain distance from the cliff, he fires the gun again, and this time the echo is heard 1.5 s later than the first. Calculate the distance that the person moved.
