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.
The diagram shows wheel O pivoted at point A. Three equal forces F1, F2 and F3 act at point B on the wheel.

- Which force will produce maximum moment about A?
- Give a reason for your answer in (a).
The diagram in Fig shows two forces F1 = 5 N and F2 = 3 N acting at points A and B respectively of a rod pivoted at a point O, such that OA = 2 m and OB = 4 m.

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