प्रश्न
P, Q and R are three forces which act as shown in fig.
The point O lies in the same plane. Given, P = Q = R = 10N
(i) Which force has the least moment about O? Give a reason.
(ii)Which force has the greatest moment about O? Give a reason.
उत्तर
(i) Force 'R' has the least moment about 'O' because its perpendicular distance is least from 'O'.
(ii) Force 'P' has the maximum moment about 'O' because its perpendicular distance is maximum from 'O'.
