Less force is needed when applied at a farther distance from the pivoted point.
State one way to obtain greater moment of a given force about a given axis of rotation.
The diagram shows two forces F1 = 5 N and F2 = 3N acting at point A and B of a rod pivoted at a point O, such that OA = 2m and OB = 4m

Calculate:
- Moment of force F1 about O
- Moment of force F2 about O
- Total moment of the two forces about O.
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.

Calculate the resultant moment of forces about O and state its direction in fig.

State whether the moment of force is a scalar or vector quantity?
