उत्तर
Distance = 25 cm = `25/100` = 0.25 m
Force = 10 N
Moment of force = ?
Moment of force = Force × Distance
= 10 × 0.25
= 2.5 N m

State two factors on which affect moment of force.
What is thrust?
A spanner of length 10 cm is used to open a nut by applying a minimum force of 5.0 N. Calculate the moment of force required.
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.
The figure shows two forces each of magnitude 10 N acting at the point A and B at a separation of 50 cm, in opposite directions. Calculate the resultant moment of two forces about the point.
- A,
- B and
- O situated exactly at the middle of the two forces.

Classify the following amongst contact and non-contact forces.
magnetic force
Three forces A, B and C are acting on a rigid body which can turn about O in fig.9. If all the three forces are applied simultaneously, in which direction will the body move? Explain.

Assertion & Reasoning
- Assertion: The sum of the clockwise moments is equal to the sum of the anticlockwise moments.
- Reason: The principle of conservation of momentum is valid if the external force on the system is zero.
